In the flower hall
Just when Sun Shaozu was waiting impatiently, Jia She also stepped into the hall, with an indifferent expression on his face. He looked at Sun Shaozu who stood up to welcome him, and asked: "Xian Nephew Sun, why do you have time to come to my place?"
Sun Shaozu said with a smile: "My nephew has nothing to do at home. It's almost the Chinese New Year, so I wanted to come over and see Shibo."
The implication of these words is that it tells Jia She that he has no time at home and the matter of filling the vacancy in the capital camp is valid or not?
Also, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and he is living in Shenjing, and he is short of money. If he really can't do it later, should he get the money back?
Jia She had something on his mind, so he understood the implication behind his words, but a smile appeared on his face and he said, "My good nephew is interested."
But he did not continue to extend the topic.
The money has gone into his pocket, but he still wants to get it back, what a dream!
The two were seated separately.
Seeing Jia She not answering, Sun Shaozu felt a little irritated and asked in a low voice: "Shibo, I wonder if there is any clue about that matter?"
Jia She was holding the tea cup, took a sip, and said, "Don't worry, my dear nephew. Didn't something happen in the capital camp the day before yesterday? It was originally agreed that while the capital camp was being reorganized, the nephew could go in and become a guerrilla general, but It’s not easy to work now and it will take time.”
When Sun Shaozu heard this, his face suddenly turned down, and he said hurriedly: "Uncle, my nephew has been in Beijing for a few months. He has been waiting hard in Beijing for his missing son, but the Ministry of War has no word from him. What's the wait? I don’t know how long it will take to wait. My nephew, who lives in Beijing as a horse chewer, will spend a lot of money. If things are really difficult, Shibo will see if he can..."
When Jia She heard this, his expression changed instantly, his eyes flashed coldly, and he said, "What does this mean, nephew? Do you mean you can't trust me?"
Seeing Jia She's annoyance, Sun Shaozu hesitated again and did not want to break up. He quickly smiled and said, "Why can't you trust Shibo? It's just that Shibo also has to be considerate of his nephew's difficulties. There is always a shortage of people in the capital. There’s nothing wrong with just waiting around forever.”
Jia She put down the tea cup again and said, "My dear nephew, please be patient. I'll ask someone to ask questions in the next two days."
But in Sun Shaozu's ears, he thought it was an excuse.
Wang Ziteng is still in the position, and Jia She has not been able to operate successfully. It will only be harder to operate now.
Sun Shaozu thought for a while and tried: "Now General Yunhui is in charge of the Beijing camp and has full authority to deal with the rectification of the Beijing camp. He also has a close relationship with several officials in the Ministry of War. Can Shibo help General Yunhui with me?" Any kind words for my nephew?"
It is interesting to say that the capital camp was transferred from Wang Ziteng to Jia Heng, and it was almost not out of the control of the four major families of King Jia Shi and Xue.
Sun Shaozu did not ask Jia She at the beginning. At that time, Jia Heng was only a third-class Yunhui general who had not returned from suppressing the bandits. Sun Shaozu thought that he had a shallow foundation and was not easy to contact.
When Jia She heard this, his heart sank and his face was dark and unreadable.
He and Jia Heng'er are in the same boat. How can Jia Heng'er listen to him?
However, it was not enough to send Sun Shaozu away. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, nephew, I will talk to Brother Heng."
This is using a tiger's skin as a banner.
Sun Shaozu couldn't help but rekindle hope in his heart and strike while the iron was hot: "Uncle Shibo, General Yunhui should be at your house right now. Can you recommend him?"
It’s no wonder that Sun Shaozu didn’t know the discord between the east and west mansions. How could outsiders guess the secrets inside the house and the internal strife between Rongning and Rongning mansions?
Jia She's face darkened. How could he recommend him? Even if he did, would Jia Heng's son give him face?
However, over here, Sun Shaozu clearly had a sense of shamelessness and prayed again: "Uncle Shibo, it is the time to hire people in Beijing. My nephew has been waiting for a son, and he is just waiting for this one." If you miss this good opportunity, I don’t know when the next time will be. I have great mercy on my little nephew."
Jia She took a look at Sun Shaozu and saw that he had a tall figure and a broad mouth, and he looked somewhat like a military general.
Secretly, he recommended this guy to Jia Heng's son. If Sun Shaozu was lucky enough to be used by that kid, it would be considered as fulfilling his promise. If not, then Jia Heng's son would help him get rid of him, so there would be no need to talk about it. You can't handle cashiering by yourself.
Anyway, this official couldn't function no matter what, so he might as well send Sun Shaozu away like this.
But Jia She obviously underestimated Sun Shaozu's shamelessness. He either wanted to fill the gap or wanted his money back, and he also wanted to prostitute me for nothing! ?
Jia She called a servant and said, "Go and see if Brother Heng is at the house?"
When Sun Shaozu saw this, he was very happy.
If you work under the services of such a hot young powerful person, you will be able to achieve great success, be promoted and make a fortune.
Not long after, the servant came over and said, "Sir, Uncle Heng is in the Rong Mansion right now."
Jia She asked in confusion: "Brother Heng, why are you in Xifu?"
"The old lady called the uncle to Rongqing Hall for questioning." The servant hurriedly replied.
Jia Zhen died of illness in Lingnan. Jia's mother wanted to call Jia Heng to Rongqing Hall to ask about Jia Zhen's funeral and Jia Rong's placement.
In fact, Jia Mu not only called Jia Heng, but also Xichun.
Jia Heng also wanted to take the opportunity to find Jia's mother to reveal that Jia She was a monster, and took Yuan Chun to the eldest princess's house in Jinyang to beat Mrs. Wang.
Jia She said: "My dear nephew, please follow me to the front hall of Rong Mansion to wait for me. I will go see the old lady."
Sun Shaozu beamed with joy and said, "I wonder if my nephew will be lucky enough to meet the old emperor?"
If he had seen that old lady and was recognized as a grandson or something, he would have climbed onto a high branch.
"Well...it depends on what the old lady wants." Jia She simply gave Sun Shaozu some hope.
Sun Shaozu felt more and more happy and bowed his head repeatedly: "Thank you so much, uncle."
Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall
It is the afternoon, surrounded by green pearls, warblers and swallows, incense piled high with powder, and the jewels are shining.
Jia's mother was sitting on the Arhat bed, with Yuanyang, Hubo and other maids serving tea behind her. On the embroidered piers on both sides, Mrs. Wang, Li Wan, Sister Feng and others were sitting in rows. Yuan Ying visited Sichun and Xiangyun.
Aunt Xue and Baochai did not go to Wang Ziteng's house to mourn today. They waited until the first seven days were over before going on the day of the funeral, so they came to Rongqing Hall to talk to Jia Mu.
But at this time, most of the eyes in the hall were looking at the young man who was wearing a python uniform and a military attache's robe, sitting upright.
Jia Mu asked, "Brother Heng, how did you arrange Brother Zhen's funeral?"
Jia Heng said: "Someone sent Brother Rong and Jia Xiao from the clan to go south by boat to support the spirit. Sister-in-law You also went with them and transported them to the ancestral land of Jinling for burial."
Jia Mu nodded, but when she heard that Youshi had also come to Lingnan, she paused and said with emotion: "Youshi is a kindhearted person. It's Brother Zhen who can't stand her."
Sister Feng looked up and down at the young man with her charming and narrow red phoenix eyes, and said, "Brother Heng, this journey of thousands of miles may not be smooth sailing. Can you please send someone to see you off?"
"A small flag of soldiers has been arranged to accompany the ship, so it should be no big deal." Jia Heng said.
Jia Mu added: "I have watched Brother Zhen grow up. Although he has committed some crimes, he is still of Ningguo's blood. People say that after death, karma will disappear. Brother Heng, what are you doing outside now? I wouldn't give him a general understanding of the important matters of governing the country and ensuring peace of the country."
Jia Heng said: "Old lady, the past is past, we still need to look forward."
Jia Mu said, "Yes, that's the truth."
Jia Heng suddenly changed the topic and said: "However, some people are using this matter to slander me, gossiping, and making trouble, saying that Jia Zhen was poisoned by me!"
As he spoke, he cast an aggressive gaze on Mrs. Wang.
Mrs. Wang's face changed suddenly, her body trembled, and when she touched the tea cup on the side, it made a crisp "snap" sound.
This sound was particularly harsh, and it was indescribably weird in the quiet Rongqing Hall.
Everyone looked at Mrs. Wang in unison.
For example, when Li Wan and Sister Feng heard Mrs. Wang say unpleasant words last night, their faces became solemn and they thought to themselves, something is going to happen?
While Yuan Ying visited Xi, Aunt Xue and Baochai were more attracted by the sound of the tea cup, but as time passed, their thoughts became somewhat clearer.
Jia Mu looked at this scene with worried eyes, glanced at Mrs. Wang who looked frightened, and thought about how to resolve it.
Mrs. Wang's face was green and red, and her mouth was moving, wanting to say something.
Yuanchun pursed his lips, and looked at the young man who had become angry for a moment.
When she came back yesterday, she faintly heard the news.
Just when Yuan Chunfang felt sad, Jia Heng said coldly: "You poured the dirty water of Jia Zhen's death on me, and even stirred up trouble, and wanted Mr. Jing of Xuanzhen Temple to cause trouble secretly, with ulterior motives. If I have such a thousand miles Jia Zhen's ability to practice law should have been killed when he committed evil, so why should the court punish him with the law?"
As soon as these words came out, Rongqing Hall fell silent and looked at each other.
Even Mrs. Wang's body was stiff, her face was ashen, and her eyes were filled with fear.
It can be said that Jia Heng has not been so angry for a long time.
Perhaps it was precisely after Jia Heng was knighted and promoted that his tolerance for some things increased unconsciously out of consideration for being a decent person, but this gave Mrs. Wang the courage to gossip.
People are like this. If they don't take a shot for three days, they will go to the house and peel off the tiles. The scars will heal and they will forget about the pain.
Baochai's apricot eyes moved slightly, holding a corner of the handkerchief, with a serious look on her plump, white face. She quietly looked at the unruffled young man, and became increasingly aware of the discord between the east and west houses.
"Brother Heng, who is this person you are talking about...?" Mother Jia had no choice but to answer the question with an expressionless face.
I just thought about it over and over again, and vaguely heard something was wrong. Go to Xuanzhen Temple?
She remembered that Baoyu's mother only made a few gossips, but no one went to Xuanzhen Temple to stir up trouble.
Jia Heng said: "Who else could it be? Of course..."
At this time, a woman entered Rongqing Hall and reported: "Old lady, madam, the eldest master is here."
Jia Mu: "..."
Mrs. Wang: “???”
After this interruption, Feng Wan and Yuan Chun both breathed a sigh of relief, and the atmosphere of Rongqing Hall, which was originally frozen like ice and dull and oppressive, relaxed.
Jia Heng said: "The eldest master asked Brother Rong to go to Master Jing to stir up trouble. He wanted to instigate the two of them to make trouble in the house, and tried to throw dirty water on me. Old lady, people like this who don't care about the overall interests of the clan, I don't know. What's your intention?"
Instead of looking for Jia She directly, it is better to look for Jia Mu.
When Jia Mu heard this, she was shocked and angry, and said: "That's all right! Let the eldest master come in!"
Jia She didn't know what was going on at this time. In his impression, Jia Rong was timid and didn't dare to cause trouble, but he might not have the courage to tell the truth and offend him. Moreover, if he had told the truth, according to the temper of the man in Dongfu, he wouldn't be as good as he is now. The house is still fine and there is no attack.
Therefore, he followed a mother-in-law into the Rongqing Hall with a calm expression. Amidst the eyes of everyone who were either disgusted or indifferent, he bowed to Jia Mu and said respectfully: "My son has seen his mother."
Mother Jia's face was indifferent. She did not step forward to ask about Jia Rong and Xuanzhen Guan. Instead, she asked coldly: "How did you get to me?"
Jia She glanced at Jia Heng and said, "Old lady, I came here to see Brother Heng for something."
Jia She's words not only confused Jia Mu, but also everyone else looked at each other.
This person who is secretly stirring up trouble has not yet come to you, but you have come out.
Jia She forced a smile on his face and explained: "Our family's old relative, Sun Shaozu, is waiting for a promotion in the Ministry of War in the middle of the capital. He said that he admires Brother Heng's reputation and wants to come to visit Brother Heng. I see that he is also very handsome. , I have an extraordinary bearing. Didn’t my mother usually say that I don’t really help Brother Heng with external affairs? Today I’m going to introduce a capable person to Brother Heng. Why don’t you go and meet Brother Heng?”
Everyone in Rongqing Hall had their mouths twitching and couldn't bear to look directly at Jia She.
Are there such shameless people in the world?
The front legs are just behind to splash dirty water on people, but the back legs are like a normal person, shyly coming over to take advantage of others.
Thinking back to the incident of Jia Lian stealing his aunt the day before yesterday, I felt even more that this old man was shameless and had no dignity at all.
Sister Feng's cheeks were also hot and she was a little ashamed.
Jia Mu spat: "You bastard!"
The smile on Jia She's face froze, and he asked in surprise, "Mother..."
Mother Jia said coldly: "Did you ask Brother Rong to go to Xuanzhen Temple to stir up trouble and throw dirty water on Brother Heng's head?"
Jia She's expression changed suddenly, and he subconsciously defended: "Mother, I...I didn't."
Jia Mu said angrily: "If you keep making excuses, are you going to call Brother Rong back to confront you?"
Jia She's expression changed, he choked the second half of his words, and looked at Jia Heng with the old god beside him in surprise.
He didn't know that Jia Rong had leaked the secret, so he kept cursing secretly in his heart.
Jia Mu stared at Jia She closely and said, "You have done a good job by stirring up trouble and stirring up dissension. You have ruined the reputation of the clan leader!"
Jia She's eyes were gloomy and he didn't dare to respond.
"What are you doing standing here? Go to the ancestral hall and kneel in front of your ancestors!" Jia Mu suddenly shouted.
Jia Heng's expression was indifferent and his eyes moved slightly.
He secretly thought that this was the benefit of Jia Mu's treatment. If it were him, even if he was the clan leader, he would not be able to cause trouble for such rumors among clans and let Jia She, a scholar of the literary generation, and Xijue of Rongguo go to kneel in the ancestral hall. With.
But Jia Mu can, and although Jia Mu's move made Jia She lose face, she actually protected Jia She, confessed to her ancestors, and showed him her gesture, so that he would not be able to hold on to her anymore.
This is Jia Mu's little thought.
Of course, Jia Mu still had some real intentions. Last time Jia She behaved like a monster, Jia Mu scolded Mrs.
Maybe his status is different from the past.
Jia She's face changed, he was both ashamed and angry. He clearly felt extremely humiliated. After all, in front of all the female relatives, being scolded like a child, he...
Seeing that Jia She was still immobile, Jia's mother leaned on crutches, tears appeared in her eyes, and cried: "You go now. If you are disobedient and refuse to go, I will enter the palace immediately."
Jia She's face was ashen and his body was trembling. He lowered his head and said, "Mother, son, go right now!"
If he really accuses him of disobeying his elders, he will definitely be expelled and everything will be over!
Jia She said no more, turned around and left with a cold face.
It really comes in a hurry and goes in a hurry.
In the Rongqing Hall, Jia Mu looked sad and sighed, "I'm so worried."
It was difficult for everyone to answer the question.
