There are many rogues in Beijing, especially the Goulanwashe generation in Nancheng. It can be said that there are groups of gangs. If Ni Er is missing, there will be many Zhang San to replace him.
Moreover, most of these gangsters have close contacts with people in the official circles, and as long as they don't cause too much trouble, the county government doesn't bother to take care of them.
After all, there are only so many yamen servants, and if you want to maintain the superficial prosperity and stability, you really need the help of gang members.
Jia Shiyi personally came to talk to Ni Er in person, and then went to the Daxing County Government Office together. When the Daxing County Magistrate Gu Shigao heard that the young man from Rongguo Mansion was intervening on the case, he immediately threw Sun Shaozu's instructions into a corner.
Following Jia Cong's instructions, those who should be struck were struck, and those who were supposed to be released were released. Before nightfall, Ni Er went to Fangshi to have a drink with more than ten brothers who had not done much wrongdoing.
When Ni Er's mother heard that her son said that he had entered the sect of the mistress of Rongguo Mansion, she knelt down in front of the ancestor's memorial tablet in excitement for more than half an hour, thanking the ancestor for showing up and enlightening this bastard son.
The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and on the fifth day of the winter lunar month, the Holy Spirit finally returned to Beijing.
After Mr. Pardon had an errand at the Governor's Mansion, he hurried back to Rongguo Mansion after a long journey.
After taking a hot bath and putting on new clothes, I went to Rongxi Hall to say hello.
Perhaps time has turned around. In the past two years, Ning Rongjia's family has completely changed. Happy events have come one after another. The old lady has also seen the facts clearly. In the end, the Rongguo Mansion still has to rely on the boss.
Jia She asked about Jinse's delivery. When he heard that mother and child were well, especially that the child was in good health, his tired eyes shone.
After the Lin family was established, it was possible for the Jia family to maintain its strongest support among civil servants.
"My brother-in-law's child has to be taken care of by the old lady. The Lin family is such a single family, so nothing will happen to him. My son can't bear to take care of the affairs of the back house. Please be more careful and don't let anyone take advantage of the loophole."
The old lady glanced at her eldest son: "You don't have to worry about the matters in the inner court, I will take care of them. But you, now that you have been granted the title of Marquis, more and more people are targeting our family. I have been sleeping these days. I can’t even sleep well, always worried about the turmoil from the past happening again..."
"What did someone say to you here?"
Jia She looked carefully and saw that the old lady's face was really tired. After a moment's thought, he knew that someone must have seen Rongguo Mansion return to its peak, and came to the old lady to say something about it.
Back then, the old man was still in charge, and the demons and monsters had many scruples. He, Marquis Jia En, didn't have such a big face to make others abandon the fat piece of Rongguo Mansion.
Sure enough, the old lady hesitated for a moment and then sighed: "Wang Ziteng asked his wife to come and go to Lixiangyuan to look for the Xue family. Xue's wife told me that Wang Ziteng made a good marriage to Bao Yatou... …”
laugh……
"Can he be so kind?"
Jia She sneered and said disdainfully: "His Luan girl has not proposed marriage, so he would be so kind as to let Bao Yatou see him? Did the Xue family say which descendant of the family he wanted to see?"
"He is the son of Jinzhou Guard Commander Yuan Chenghuan..."
Um? Yuan Chenghuan’s son? This bitch...
Mr. Pardon wanted to scold his mother. It is true that Yuan Chenghuan is a capable person, but his butt is a bit crooked. He is a person with both ends. Not only did he flirt with the old fourteenth, he was also unclear with Liu Ye.
"What did the Xue family say? Did you agree?"
The old lady shook her head: "Xue Daughter-in-law had a crush on her, but Bao Yatou kept it in mind and said that she had to discuss the matter with Brother Pan, so she put it off. I asked Jing'er to send someone to investigate. This discussion The person getting married is Yuan Chenghuan’s second son. I am anxious to talk about the marriage because the maid in his room is pregnant.”
puff……
The tea in Jia She's mouth spurted out, and he choked and coughed repeatedly.
After finally regaining his composure, he couldn't help but curse: "Wang Ziteng has no shame and insists on pushing his niece into the fire pit."
Speaking of which, the Yuan family was a military family. Yuan Chenghuan was ranked as the third-ranking military commander, and his family status was much higher than that of the Xue family. If Baochai proposed to marry the Yuan family, it would be a serious marriage.
But there is one thing. Baochai is top-notch in talent, appearance, and now his brother is up to par. The second son of the Yuan family has gotten pregnant before their wedding. Does he deserve it?
This is why Wang Ziteng
In order to win over the Yuan family, are you willing to eat anything?
Master Pardon shook his head and suddenly changed the subject: "By the way, Brother Pan performed well in the competition and caught the eyes of His Majesty and the Fourth Prince. Now he is a fifth-grade military attache in the East Palace. He will move out in a few days. .”
The old lady nodded: "I heard the second girl said that this is a good thing. In this way, the orphans and widowers will not be easily bullied when they move out."
Xue Pan now has a fifth-grade real job, and it is not suitable to live in Rongguo Mansion anymore. On weekdays, we cannot always go through the side door of Rongguo Mansion when we welcome guests or send them off.
Jia She seemed to have pointed out something and smiled and said: "So you should think carefully about Baoyu's marriage. Whether you want to tell Baoyu about Bao Yatou or Yun Yatou, you have to make up your mind early. Bao Yatou is not gone anymore. My father's lonely business girl is a serious official and noblewoman, and there will be many people eyeing her."
After Xue Pan returned to Beijing, he indeed mentioned moving out to Jia She.
At that time, the ancestors of the Xue family also had the official position of Ziwei Sheren, and they were considered nobles in the royal family. Naturally, they would have a mansion in the capital.
After the Xue family came to Beijing, Mrs. Xue sent many people to take care of it. Now it won't be too troublesome to move out of Rongguo Mansion.
Furniture and other items have been ordered to be built and added. It will be ready to be officially moved in in about ten days.
Hearing that Baochai was about to leave Rongguo Mansion and return to his home, Baoyu was full of reluctance, but he also knew that this matter was an established fact, so he had been surrounding Baochai these days, and was not even afraid of Master Zheng anymore. .
The old lady thought about it and finally gave up the idea of kissing Baochai. Baochai was a good girl, but she and Baoyu were not of the same temperament. If they were to get together, it would cause undue resentment. .z.
She told Mrs. Xue privately about the dirty things that the Yuan family had secretly done, completely ruining Wang Ziteng's plan.
Since returning home, Daiyu has devoted all her thoughts to Jinse and her son, obviously neglecting Jia Cong, her fiancé, which made Jia Cong unhappy.
It wasn't until one day that Jia Cong held a stack of books full of resentment and blocked Daiyu who was going to the guest house to see her younger brother. Only then did Daiyu come to her senses. She was also responsible for teaching Jia Cong how to read. Miles.
Everything seemed to be prosperous, and the comfort of Rongguo Mansion made Jia Cong almost forget about the Zhongshan Wolf.
A few days later, when it was time to take a rest, Master Pardon was sitting in his study, inspecting the study status of his brother in the mansion with Master Zheng, when he heard from his disciple that a man named Sun from outside the mansion came to visit with a gift.
Jia Cong rubbed the palm of his hand that had just been hit by a ruler, with a trace of murderous intent in his lowered eyes.
The Zhongshan wolf is coming, close the door and let the dogs out!
Because Sun Shaozu's ancestors were generals in the Rongguo Mansion, Master Pardon personally received them in the front hall.
Mr. Zheng was not interested in this matter and was still testing the knowledge of several brothers in the study. Jia Cong said a few words casually, made an excuse and left the study, all the way to the front hall.
Sun Shaozu was a man of powerful appearance, and his appearance was reasonable, but he looked like a human and a dog...
Of course, the fact that he looks like a human and looks like a dog is the opinion of Jia Cong who knows the true appearance of this person. Master Pardon's first impression of Sun Shaozu was very good.
As for military generals, Kong Wuli was the standard. The good looks of Ning and Rong were very rare at that time.
"The Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War has not yet approved the junior's appointment. Today I came here to visit the elder. I also came here to ask for pardon and help the junior to speak..."
The pardon master originally liked Kong Wu's powerful junior generals, and Sun Shaozu visited him as a junior of the Jia family's old tribe. He was a little dizzy after being admired and tricked by him, so he took care of him. He said, "What's so difficult about this? I'll take you to the Ministry of War when you go on duty tomorrow, and I'll make sure you get a good position."
"Dad, is the surname of the military department Jia?"
Jia Cong walked into the main hall and interrupted Master Pardon's words.
He held back his nausea and murderous intent and gave Sun Shaozu his hand, and then said to Master Pardon with a solemn expression: "Our family does not dare to interfere in the matter of the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War. Now our family is in a raging fire. How many eyes are there? I'm staring at you, and you went to report your interference in the selection of officials for the Ministry of War. Doesn't this give those censors an excuse to impeach you?"
The Pardon Master felt that his face had been offended, and glared at the elder: "Is your father afraid of being impeached by the censor?"
Jia Cong replied quietly: "My son thinks you are afraid of the saint's fault!"
Well……
This brat specializes in exposing my shortcomings.
However, Master Pardon suddenly realized something. His good son has always been very protective of his face in front of others. What happened today? Is there anything special about Sun Shaozu?
Jia Cong looked helpless and apologized to Sun Shaozu: "Brother, it's not that I have to stop my father. In fact, my father has offended many adults in the past few days. Now I will interfere in the selection of officials for the Ministry of War. I just want to hand it over to others." knife."
"this……"
A few days ago, Mr. Pardon and King Zhongshun were ordered to guard the palace gates, but they did not fail to embarrass the civil and military officials of the court. This matter was widely spread in the capital, and Sun Shaozu had heard about it after he entered the capital.
Sun Shaozu suppressed his jealousy towards Jia Cong and replied, "What the Third Young Master said is that I didn't think it through well. It's just that the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War has been dragging it, and I don't know when it will be over."
Jia Cong clenched the fist in his sleeve, smiled and said, "This is not difficult, but it may cost Brother Shi some money."
As the trees and flowers bloomed in another village, Sun Shaozu's eyes lit up and he asked hurriedly: "Third Young Master, do you have a solution? If it just costs some money, it doesn't matter."
There are so many people in Hou Que in the capital. It's really not a problem if they just spend some money. The main reason is that Hou Que, the military attache who comes from the same place as Sun Shaozu, must have a way to send money to do things.
Jia Cong scratched his head and said with a naive smile: "Father, it's hard for me to show up, but I can. Mr. Zhao Baozhen, a doctor in the military selection department of the Ministry of War, was my teacher in the same year. Find a day for me to do it, and invite Mr. Zhao to meet him at the teahouse. Brother Jianshi, this should be possible."
As soon as these words came out, Sun Shaozu was overjoyed.
If we could ask the Ministry of War to use military force to select the doctors and officials of the Qing Dynasty Department, would it be possible to select officials for Hou Que?
As for spending money, that’s not a problem!
Just now, the resentment towards Jia Cong for preventing Mr. Pardon from helping him disappeared. Sun Shaozu gratefully thanked Jia Cong: "Thank you, Third Young Master, for planning for me. The Sun family has been a general of the Jia family since their ancestors, and there will be no exception in my generation. From now on, whenever the Duke of Pardon and the Third Young Master are summoned, I will dare to disobey..."
"You've already talked about the relationship between our two families, why are you saying such kind words?"
Jia She looked at his son with satisfaction, and waved his hand to ask Sun Shaozu, who was bowing in obeisance, to get up. He regretfully talked about his early dealings with Sun's father, and finally gave Jia Cong a few words, asking Jia Cong to help him wholeheartedly, which made Sun Shaozu feel more at ease about the matter.
About half an hour later, someone came from the backyard and said that the old lady was asking for forgiveness. Sun Shaozu then got up and said goodbye.
Jia Cong personally sent him to the gate, calling him brother and brother in words, which made Sun Shaozu extremely happy.
It seems that I have really embraced the Jia family this time. At least the head of the Rongguo Mansion and the world-famous cat master treat me very well.
Then it’s time to think of a way to carry out the second plan!
Ever since Master Pardon granted him the title of Marquis, there have been many people visiting Rongxi Hall.
The ladies the old lady has received in the past few days include almost most of the imperial ladies of the third rank or above in Beijing.
"I have made a decision about Baoyu's marriage..."
There were only two people in the Hall of Rongxi, the old lady and the pardoner, and even the mandarin ducks were kicked out.
Mr. Pardon was a little confused: "You should tell your second brother about this."
"I can tell you what my parents ordered me to do as a matchmaker, but I'm not sure about one thing and I want to find out with you."
The old lady was obviously worried, so Mr. Pardon sat up straight and said, "You tell me."
I saw the old lady's eyes becoming deep, and at the same time there was some hope: "What will happen to the Shi family? Boss, tell me the truth, is there any hope?"
Jia She pursed her lips and was silent for a long time before sighing: "Mother, my son is not sure about this. But there is one thing that mother still has to be mentally prepared for.
During this war in South Vietnam, the imperial court would mobilize the local guards in Sichuan and Sichuan. If Shi Nai and Shi Ding did not mix things up, there wouldn't be much of a problem. But if they really fall into it, they may even have their homes confiscated and exiled. "
The old lady swayed, and Jia She hurriedly stepped forward to hold her up.
The old lady's face was full of sadness. Her two nephews were ambitious bastards but not very talented.
Not only did he swallow up his eldest nephew's military exploits, but he also colluded with the four major princes. There are some things that the old lady knows very well. The death of her eldest nephew and the death of brother Shi Naineng were actually the work of Xining County Prince Qi Wenhua, and the Beijing County Prince's Palace was definitely one of the accomplices in this matter.
This time when Shui Rong went south to lead the troops, if he just mentioned something about that year, how could the Shi brothers not be obedient? The old lady can already imagine the final outcome of the Shi family.
"It's all fate! Back then, the two of them tried their best to steal their brother's military glory, forced their widowed sister-in-law to death, and treated their niece harshly. They deserved this ending."
The old lady became depressed, and she said to Jia She, "Forget it, let's forget about it. If the day comes, try to save the lives of the children."
Jia She sighed, helped the old lady lie down on the couch, and asked probingly: "What about Baoyu and Yun Yatou..."
Hearing her son mention Xiangyun, the old lady managed to cheer up and said, "I will go to the palace another day and ask the empress what she wants. If the empress does not object, I will get engaged to the two of them."
