"My nephew Jia Hui, please see me!"

Outside the clean room, Jia Hui did not break in. He stood outside and bowed to the inside.

"Oh! Come in!"

After listening for a while, Jia Jing's voice came from inside.

After hearing this, Jia Hui pushed open the door and saw Jia Jing resting on the futon with his eyes closed.

"Now that you are already a superior earl, it is inconvenient for you to involve me any more, so why should you?"

Seeing Jia Hui come in, Jia Jing also opened his eyes and said softly.

"My lord, what you said is wrong. There are no great uncles here, only uncles and nephews!"

Glancing at the porcelain vase on the table, Jia Hui said worriedly:

"Mercury is poisonous, please don't use it again in the future!"

After hearing Jia Hui's dissuasion, Jia Jing did not answer. After a while, he asked in a deep voice:

"When I return to Beijing this time, where will the Emperor ask Brother Hui to serve?"

"In reply to the Master, Your Majesty decrees that your nephew will be in charge of the show of force camp!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jia Jing was shocked and quickly asked:

"Your Majesty's decree? What does your Majesty mean by this?"

You must know that the emperor is in charge of the upstarts of Longqing and the founding of the country. If he does not nod, Emperor Taichang will have no chance to take charge of the military.

Now Jia Hui's reward is the decree of Emperor Taichang. Could it be...

"Your Majesty must have guessed it. Now that the Emperor is old, I am afraid he will be ready to delegate power to His Majesty!"

Jia Hui sat opposite Jia Jing and expressed his guess.

"I just don't know why the Emperor chose to start with me!"

Regarding this, Jia Jing guessed it in his heart and said to Jia Huiyan:

"Brother Hui, you still don't know how powerful your identity is!"

Seeing Jia Hui's expression of confusion, he continued:

"Brother Hui is the main line of the Jia family, and the Jia family was once the head of the founding line. Your Majesty is planning to let you lead the founding line and contain the upstart Longqing family that is now the dominant family!"

"Since the fall of the Kaiguo line, many positions in the army have been occupied by the Longqing line. When the emperor was there, they could naturally be easily suppressed. If the emperor couldn't bear to speak, the founding line of that year would be different from the Longqing of today. How similar are they?"

"Besides, after the founder of the country fell, seven princes seized the throne, and I don't know how many secret hands were planted in the army. This is also the reason why the emperor does not let go of the military power!"

"I'm going to let you use it as a knife to chop off the flesh of Longqing's upstart!"

Speaking of this, Jia Jingzai was not as calm as before, and his face was full of unwillingness.

The Jia family finally gave birth to a proud son of heaven, but unexpectedly he became the emperor's sharp weapon for balancing military power.

If they want the Jianguo lineage to regain the power to compete with the Longqing lineage, they must cut off the military power from the Longqing upstarts.

If it succeeds in the future, His Majesty will always come out to appease the new rich in Longqing so that they don't have to worry anymore.

What can best soothe the hearts of Long Qing's people? That must be Jia Hui's life.

"Brother Hui, if you find something wrong, resign your military power. With the merits of our ancestors, we can always keep our reputation!"

I originally thought that I could revitalize the family, but I didn't expect that I would jump into a whirlpool. Jia Jing was also disappointed.

"My nephew understands what I mean, but as the chief surgeon, the benefits are huge. Since Your Majesty wants to weaken the Longqing lineage, it must be done before the Emperor dies. Otherwise, Your Majesty will not dare to suppress it without the Emperor's suppression. Do it easily."

"With this opportunity, I'm afraid my nephew will be able to take the position of Duke in a short time! Since the income is so high, let's let my nephew make a knife, so let's make a knife!"

Seeing that Jia Jing still wanted to persuade, we knew that he was worried that he would become an abandoned son of Emperor Taichang to pacify the Longqing lineage in the future.

So he pulled out his waist knife and slashed it down directly on his wrist.

"Brother Hui! What are you doing?"

In Jia Jing's panicked eyes, Jia Hui spread his palms, revealing his intact wrist.

"Master, my nephew has said before that my nephew has been protected by his ancestors and his body is getting stronger day by day. Now he is invulnerable. My nephew dares to say that in less than ten years, no one in this world will use any method to decapitate me!"

Looking at Jia Hui, who looked confident, Jia Jing felt dubious.

But at this time, Jia Hui was unwilling to hand over military power, and he had no other choice but to trust Jia Hui.

"Sir, these are just speculations. Your Majesty is not a cold-hearted person. When the Jia family was under the remonstrance of the former prince, didn't the emperor also let my grandfather enjoy his old age in peace and then demoted my father to a noble title?"

"Your grandfather...Oh! That's all we have to do!"

Jia Jing hesitated to speak, but in the end he could only choose to believe Jia Hui's judgment.

Jia Hui also knew that it was an extremely stupid decision to put his life and death at the mercy of the emperor, but Jia Hui also wanted to buy time for himself and the Jia family.

Judging from my current physical condition, I will make him understand what regret is when the day comes.

Jia Jing naturally didn't know what Jia Hui was thinking at this time. Seeing that Jia Hui had already made up his mind, he stopped talking and changed his words and said to Jia Hui:

"Now that you are back, you should marry Miss Qin as soon as possible. People in the capital were talking about it some time ago. You should ask your father to make preparations!"

"My nephew knows. I heard that Brother Rong is engaged to the Xu family from the east of the city. My nephew needs to hurry up!"

At this time, the two stopped discussing matters between the DPRK and China, and started chatting about home affairs.

We chatted until nightfall and had dinner with Jia Jing. Then he remembered that there were people at home waiting for him to go back for dinner, so he said goodbye and left.

...

"Brother Hui, the old lady and the eldest man have been waiting here for a long time. When they saw that you didn't come back, they have already gone back!"

In the Ning'an Hall, Jia Zhen looked at Jia Hui who came in a hurry and was speechless for a while.

However, he also admired Jia Hui for daring not to give the old lady and Jia She any face, and left them to hang out in Huifang Garden until nightfall before they came back.

"Brother Hui, the old lady and the eldest man were very angry when they left. You'd better go back and apologize quickly!"

Now that Jia Hui is a superior earl, Jia Zhen no longer dares to neglect him, and she speaks much more politely.

"Haha, we are all a family. We can't apologize for anything. As elders, how can the old lady and the eldest man get angry with a child like me? It's no big deal. There is little communication between the two brothers. I'm still here. Let’s talk to you!”

Knowing the situation of the two of them, Jia Hui felt that it would be better to go back later.

Jia's mother is a little better. She values ​​decency in doing things. At most, she only gets sulky and won't teach herself a lesson.

But Jia She is a stupid young man. If he gets into trouble with him again and loses control of his temper, it would be bad to injure Jia Hui with Jia Hui's current strength!

So Jia Hui started chatting with Jia Zhen in Ning'an Hall.

Jia Zhen seems to be very interested in Jia Hui, a superior earl. Jia Jing's words are full of favors from the Ning family. She is preparing for Jia Hui to repay the favor!

"Brother Rong, I heard that you are engaged to the Xu family from the east of the city. Third uncle, I would like to congratulate you! When will you get married?"

Jia Hui did not answer Jia Zhen's words. When he saw Jia Rong waiting on the side, he changed the subject.

"Thank you, Third Uncle. The wedding period has now ended, and the wedding date is set for the ninth day of August!"

"Okay, speaking of which, although we are uncles and nephews, in terms of age, you are several months older than me. You can no longer be confused all day long. I will find a job for you tomorrow, third uncle, so as not to Others gossip about your father!"

"Thank you, uncle!"

After listening to Jia Hui's words, Jia Rong was suddenly overjoyed and thanked Jia Hui with a look of surprise.

Jia Zhen on the side looked embarrassed, and her eyes towards Jia Rong became unkind.
