"Young man, you have always known that the Thirteenth Master is fair and strict. How can you dare to bother him with personal matters? What he said just now is all the truth. The old nun who claims to be a monk not only took over the errands of the rich man Zhang's family in Chang'an Mansion, but also collected the money early. Only then With this demonic nun coming to our Jia family to instigate, she wants the master and wife of the Rongguo Mansion to write a letter to ask the Chang'an Jiedushi to come out and scare the garrison's family, so that the garrison will retreat when the situation is difficult, and the daughter of the Zhang family can Justifiably, he became the nephew of the Grand Master."
King Zhongshun glanced at Brother Rong lightly and said, "If there are no other entanglements, your Jia family just won't accept it, so why do you need to come to me to complain?"
Jia Rong chuckled and said: "I know I can't hide it from the Thirteenth Master. Our Jia family didn't accept this matter, so it just passed away. But this old nun didn't know what to do, and even sent someone to go to the old lady of Rongguo Mansion to do the dirty work. I'm like. How can I be so angry? This demon nun is so bold. Not only does she instigate the Jia family to gain power, but she also wants to ruin the relationship between the two Jia families. So I think this demon nun must have done this kind of power manipulation in the past. Something happened, so I came to ask Master Thirteen to send someone to investigate."
"Okay, I have asked Zhou Changshi to make arrangements."
King Zhongshun really didn't react much to such things. He had been in the court for decades, and he didn't know that officials from various places behaved somewhat inappropriately in private. It's just that he is busy with official duties and can't take care of it.
Compared with the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the Ministry of Industry, this kind of thing is simply insignificant.
He didn't want to put too much thought into it either. He said: "From now on, just go to the Shuntian Mansion Yamen to check on such trivial matters."
Brother Rong said: "That's what I originally thought, but that old nun often recited the "Blood Basin Sutra" to the ladies of the princes and princes in Shenjing. I'm afraid many people will regard old nun Jingxu as their benefactor. If our Jia family opens our mouth, we will not offend a group of princes and princes."
After hearing Jia Rong's shameless words, King Zhongshun was so angry that his eyebrows were raised and his beard was trembling. He hummed: "You're a worthless guy. The people who went to picket the area are officials from Shuntian Mansion. What does it have to do with your Jia family? How can a timid person achieve great things?"
I didn't expect it to be a big deal! Brother Rong secretly thought to himself that as long as the Jia family did not collapse, he could live a carefree life on the boat of the Jia family.
event? Now that he is already a fourth grade noble, what else is there to do? After these days, the official position is confirmed, at least it must be a fourth or fifth grade official.
How else to make it happen? After decades of hard work, you can become a governor-general? Or go one step further and become a bachelor?
Did Jia Rong never think about this? I don’t want to be a governor-general, let alone a bachelor.
Not that pursuit!
Every day he could just reach out and report being affectionate to his wife. That was the life he wanted to live.
If you want to live a long time, you have to learn to be patient.
This is the truth, the eternal truth.
King Zhongshun looked at Jia Rong's expression and hated the iron. However, Thirteenth Master also knew in his heart that since the old nun could directly enter the Rongguo Mansion, she might not be unable to enter the other princes' and princes' mansions in Shenjing.
He may even have interests with some princes, princes, princes and princes.
The Thirteenth Master said: "I will help you with this matter. Don't think about running away from the paddy field control and river project next year."
Forehead……
This calculation is wrong. Jia Rong cried out in her heart. She just wanted the Thirteenth Master to take charge of power matters, so why did she get involved? He said with a silly smile: "Didn't I postpone my official status now? I'm still not sure where I will work in the future. How can I dare to commit my time next year to the Thirteenth Master now?"
King Zhongshun said: "I know that your Jia family has entrusted the Wang family with the book. Do you really think this can be done? Even the Wang family themselves have been transferred out of the capital camp, and they still want to put you, the eldest grandson of the Jia family, into the nine gates as a guard. , It’s simply a delusion. The nine gates of Shenjing are closely related, and you four princes and eight princes have enough people in their houses.”
Jia Rong was shocked and heard the implication of the Thirteenth Master's words. The nine gates in the inner city of Shenjing are directly related to the security of the forbidden palace. How could the emperor let the nine gates be controlled by four kings and eight princes? These families are already close to each other. If they have any treacherous thoughts, the Forbidden Palace will be right in front of them.
Now the emperor is still on guard against the four princes and eight princes.
It's no wonder that Wang Ziteng's official position was mentioned. The purpose was probably to transfer the Wang family away from the Beijing camp, so that the four princes and eight princes would lose the military power of the Beijing camp.
This emperor is really suspicious. But Rong Geer also felt that the emperor did nothing wrong. If he were the emperor, he would definitely eliminate the four princes and eight princes in the Beijing camp step by step, and firmly control the military power of the Beijing camp in his own hands; not to mention the captain of the nine gates of Shenjing, it is best to be a prince and eight princes. There are no male ones.
Brother Rong sighed in his heart, it seemed that he was destined to miss Jiumen.
King Zhongshun said: "Don't be discouraged. Since the Wang family has asked for a military position for you, they will reward you with a fourth- or fifth-grade military officer."
Brother Rong was very speechless in his heart. He now had the fourth rank on his head and had a salary of more than a thousand taels of silver a year. Even if you add the name of Wu Sanguan, you will not get one more cent of salary. It would be better to go to the Ministry of Industry and become a minor official, and still have some real power.
King Zhongshun said: "Don't think about the official position. What's yours is yours. If you can't give it to me, it's useless for you to ask for it. I don't care about the affairs of your family, but if you can come here, no matter what you do, This is the purpose, and I am happy in my heart. Today is the festival, and I have asked someone to warm the wine, so we men can have a good drink."
Hearing this, the eunuch of the palace hurriedly advised: "Today, the princess specially told the old slave to keep an eye on the Thirteenth Master and not let him drink. Now... I'm going to preach to the princess, but I have to say something again."
King Zhongshun patted his knees and said: "Did you see? The problem in my leg is better. Just drink less. As long as you don't tell the princess secretly, how can she know. Quickly let the people in the kitchen know Prepare some good dishes..."
"This..." The eunuch of the palace looked embarrassed and said hesitantly: "Now I have also issued a ban on the old slave, not allowing the prince to drink."
"Boy Rong, have you brought the jade token that the king gave you last time? Show it to this old guy." King Zhongshun glared at the disappointed old eunuch and hummed: "Look, boy Rong will also do it in the future." He is considered the nephew of our royal family. If your nephew comes to the palace, why not not entertain him? He must not break the etiquette of our palace."
Brother Rong really didn't expect that this jade medal actually had such a meaning. No wonder His Highness the Crown Prince's attitude changed when he saw him taking out the jade medal that day. Holding this jade plaque in my hand, I just feel it's heavy.
"Master Thirteen, this... brand..." Jia Rong laughed dryly. "It's a bit valuable, you'd better take it back."
"It's nothing valuable, it's just a piece of jade. This thing is of no use at ordinary times, and it will just gather dust if left in the palace. Since I gave it to you, just keep it." King Zhongshun didn't seem to care about the jade plaque, and turned around again. The old eunuch said: "Go to the dining room quickly to send a message."
