After Jia Ke attended Jia Rong's wedding, he left it alone. However, things went against expectations. Soon, rumors spread throughout the Rongning and Rong Ning mansions that the young mistress of Dongfu was somewhat similar to Qin Keqing. Somehow it spread.

It reached Jia Ke’s ears.

Jia Ke didn't know that Jia Zhen was still obsessed with Qin Keqing, so she let Jia Rong marry this woman named Xu.

After Jia Ke learned the news, he didn't feel much anger, but a kind of chill. This was clearly arranged by someone, trying to make the plot return to normal. Those who could arrange this were the gods who appeared in Dream of Red Mansions.

.

As he has said all the time, the law cannot defeat nobles. With his current position of power, even the gods in the sky can't do anything to him for a while. If they want to deal with him, they can only wait for his luck to run out, but Jia Ke will not give them this.

Opportunistic.

Even if his luck is exhausted, he can still turn the tide with his own force. If those gods dare to act recklessly, he might as well fight them to the death.

It was precisely because they had no other way to deal with Jia Ke that the people around Jia Ke took action. However, Jia Ke was confident enough to make a comeback, so he didn't take their arrangements seriously.

It is strange to say that from Jia Ke's understanding of Dream of Red Mansions, these gods do not want to pursue the great road, nor do they want to help Longting, but they act in these piles of powder. I don't know what their plans are?

But on this day, Jia's mother was watching Jia Baoyu playing with her three sisters in her room, enjoying the rare family happiness.

Suddenly a little maid came into the house and whispered a few words next to Yuanyang. Upon hearing this, Yuanyang's expression changed.

Yuanyang did not dare to neglect and quickly came to Jia Mu, and replied to Jia Mu with a sullen face: "Old lady, my uncle Yangzhou's house has sent someone."

When Jia Mu heard this, she immediately laughed. She thought it was her daughter who had sent her a letter, so she ordered someone to send it to her as soon as possible.

In recent years, because the status of Rongguo Mansion has been very different from before, the relationship between Lin Ruhai, the salt patrol censor, and the Jia family has become even closer. In this year, several people impeached Lin Ruhai, saying that he was corrupt and perverting the law, and wanted to remove him from this

He was kicked out by Jia Ke, but these memorials were suppressed by Jia Ke. The emperor had actually known about this for a long time, but Lin Ruhai could be considered a member of the old emperor's faction and sent a lot of money to the old emperor every year, so the old emperor

The emperor just turned a blind eye and let Jia Ke suppress the matter.

After Lin Ruhai heard the news in Yangzhou, he immediately prepared generous gifts and sent them to the old lady of Rongguo Mansion and Jia Ke of Wuyang Marquis Mansion. Now Lin Ruhai had a backing in the court, and ordinary people did not dare to take advantage of him.

how's it going?

The old lady thought that this must be another gift from her daughter, so she ordered people to be brought in without her.

But Yuanyang did not pass on the order. Instead, he said to Jia Mu with a bad expression: "Back to the old lady, I think something is wrong. The housekeeper of the Lin Mansion came here with Xiao."

Jia Mu was also experienced in accidents. When she heard these words, she knew that something bad had happened and that she was here to report her own funeral. Jia Mu calmed down and gave her order again: "Let them come in. My old lady is still alive at this age."

Is there anything that hasn’t passed?”

This was the only time Yuanyang dared to go out to deliver orders. After Yuanyang went out, Jia Mu said to Jia Baoyu and the three girls' nannies: "Take all my brothers and sisters back."

So the three girls and Jia Baoyu were taken out of the room and went back to their sleeping quarters.

Soon Yuanyang entered Jia Mu's room with a person who looked like a housekeeper. The housekeeper was dressed in white. As soon as she saw Jia Mu, she knelt on the ground and cried loudly. Jia Mu was so moved that she cried.

Half of her soul originally thought that something was wrong with Lin Ruhai. Today, she knew something was wrong with the housekeeper, because she knew about this woman. She was also married to her daughter Jia Min. Now the Lin family sent

If she comes, and she looks so sad, what else is there to say?

The old woman knelt on the ground and howled as she said to Jia Mu: "Something has happened to the old lady, and our lady has gone."

Jia's mother fainted immediately when she heard this. Although she was somewhat mentally prepared, she still couldn't bear it when she heard the real news. You must know that Jia Min is the old lady's sweetheart. Because she is the youngest daughter, she has been doted on since she was a child.

, has been raised by the old lady's side and has never left her for a moment.

When everyone saw Jia Mu fainting, they immediately became confused. Some people hurriedly went out to find Jia Zheng to report, and some people were busy pinching Jia Mu in the middle of the body, and kept shouting in Jia Mu's ear: "Old lady, old lady

.”

After a long time, Jia Mu finally woke up. After waking up, she burst into tears. Jia Min was Jia Mu's sweetheart. Now that she heard that she died, how could she not cry?

Soon not only Jia Zheng came, but also the great master Jia She came to Jia Mu. As soon as they entered the house, they saw Jia Mu crying there. The two of them had received the news and knew that Jia Min had passed away.

.At this time, when I saw my old mother crying like this, I couldn't help but shed tears.

When Jia Mu saw the two of them coming, she didn't care about anything else. She called them to her hand, grabbed their hands and kept crying.

"Your poor sister is gone, do you know?"

"My daughter has gone to Yangzhou since she got married. I thought I would bring her back in a few years, but unexpectedly she left."

Jia Zheng and Jia She could only comfort each other from the sidelines and shed many tears with Jia's mother. Their brothers and Jia Min were from the same mother. At this time, their biological sister had passed away. To say they were not sad would be a lie.

of.

Next, Jia Mu ordered Jia Zheng to send people to Yangzhou to pay filial piety. Because she missed her daughter, she loved her only granddaughter left in the world.

It's also good to have someone by your side to take care of you.

Everyone discussed this matter, and finally it fell on Jia Lian. He was a man at home who could go there. Jia Ke was a high-ranking official and important matters in the court could not be separated from him. And Jia Zhu was a sick man. If he was allowed to go there,

Go, I'm afraid there will be nothing on the way. After all, only Jia Lian can handle this matter.

Let’s talk about Jia Mu’s side. Besides, Jia Ke’s affairs in the court have started to go wrong these days. The first thing is that the new emperor wants to appoint officials who have made mistakes in the past. This memorial was sent by Pan Yong, because

He is the Minister of Military and Aircraft, and he did not even get Jia Ke's consent.

The emperor didn't know the reason and approved it directly. After Jia Ke got the emperor's approval to reinstate the old officials, he was very angry. These dismissed officials were all corrupt, bribery or other serious sins. There was no

Isn’t it just taking the court’s laws and regulations as a trifling matter if he has to rashly claim credit? More importantly, this time Pan Yong broke the rules and did not have his own approval, which means that he did not have the consent of the Military Aircraft Department. If he makes this list easy again

If he continues to implement it, who will take him as the foreman of the Military Aircraft Department seriously in the future?

So Jia Ke used his power of refutation for the first time and rejected the emperor's imperial edict.

After the emperor heard the news that Jia Ke rejected the imperial edict, he was furious. He immediately ordered Eunuch Xia next to him: "Go and call Jia Ke. I see how brave he is to reject my imperial edict."

"

The emperor originally thought that Jia Ke would never dare to use this power given by the Supreme Emperor. It was just a show of force. Unexpectedly, it had only been a short time since he ascended the throne that Jia Ke would refute his imperial edict. If

If he doesn't regain his face, what will he, the emperor, do in the future?

After Jia Ke rejected the emperor's imperial edict, he sat in the military aircraft office, waiting for the next storm. Pan Yong sat aside and watched Jia Ke sneer.

Jia Ke didn't take him seriously. This time he gave the emperor this bad idea. In the end, even if the emperor succeeded, the emperor would be angry. In the end, this person might be the emperor's scapegoat.

Sure enough, not long after, Xia Shouzhong, the emperor's personal eunuch, entered the military aircraft. After seeing Jia Ke, he looked at him sideways, as if he was some despicable person, and said arrogantly: "Master Jia, you are so brave.

Oh, how dare you even reject the emperor's decree? Now that the emperor wants to see you, why don't you come with us?"

Jia Ke was not angry because of his arrogance and rudeness. He just stood up calmly and said with his hands in his hands: "In that case, please ask Eunuch Xia to lead the way."

Xia Shouzhong snorted, flicked his sleeves and walked in front. Jia Ke followed Xia Shouzhong and came to the East Nuan Pavilion of Yangxin Palace, where the new emperor had his office.

After Jia Ke entered Dongnuan Pavilion, he saw the new emperor reviewing the memorial behind the desk. Jia Ke did not dare to be rude and hurriedly knelt down on the ground to greet the new emperor. After all, no matter how the fight ended, surface etiquette could not be lacking.

.

The emperor seemed not to see him, and only let him kneel on the ground for nearly half an hour. Then he seemed to have just seen him, "Isn't this Jia Aiqing? What are you doing kneeling there? Get up quickly."

If other ministers had knelt for half an hour, they might not be able to stand up now, but Jia Ke was a military commander after all, and he had a variety of treasures to protect himself, so it was not a big deal. Jia Ke stood up expressionlessly

Come, then stand aside and wait for the emperor to ask questions.

"Jia Aiqing, is there anything wrong with my decree? Why should I reject it?" The emperor did not look angry at all.

Jia Ke bowed his hands and saluted the emperor, "Long live Qi Zhen, these officials who have been demoted are all at fault, and they have not made any small contributions to the court in these years. If they are used rashly, I am afraid it will be detrimental to the country's design."

After hearing what Jia Ke said, the emperor did not argue with him, but said directly with a cold face: "This is my first decree after taking power, do you still want to reject it?"

Jia Ke did not contradict the emperor, but said solemnly: "If the emperor makes this decree and I dare not obey it, please issue an order to inform the world."

The emperor was so angry that he almost vomited blood when he heard what he said. The edict and the order were completely different things. If the edict was issued with the approval of the cabinet, then it would be smooth and unimpeded and would not be criticized by the world. And the edict is indeed true.

If the emperor issues an order without the approval of the cabinet, if the order is beneficial to the world, it will naturally be respected by thousands of people. If there is a slight mistake, it may be proof of a cowardly emperor, and officials in the world may not obey the emperor's order.

.

But this time was the emperor's first order after he ascended the throne, and it had to be implemented no matter what, so he ignored Jia Ke and directly ordered someone to draft the edict beside him.

After writing it, he ignored Jia Ke and directly ordered it to pass through the world, giving the demoted officials a chance to recover.

After finishing the work, the emperor looked at Jia Ke and said, "How are you now? I can accomplish things without you Jia Ke."

"Your Majesty should be more self-disciplined, otherwise the Supreme Emperor may punish the Emperor." Jia Ke said expressionlessly.

What Jia Ke meant was to tell the emperor that you are just a puppet now, and you are not qualified to compete with the Supreme Emperor for power. If you want to win people's hearts and control the court, you should first ask the Supreme Emperor if he agrees.

After hearing this, the emperor's expression immediately changed. Now the Supreme Emperor was a taboo in his heart, a stone weighing on his heart.
