It was soon New Year's Eve, and on that day, the three residences of the Jia family had already changed into red makeup. Among them, the Duke of Yan was the most lively and luxurious.

It was just because Jia Ke had already grasped the real power of the court this year, and the emperor could only retreat to the harem and become Jia Ke's puppet.

In this way, the officials who gave gifts to Jia Ke were crowded everywhere, and Jia Ke didn't have to worry about it. The things that were dressed in Jia Ke's mansion were sent in advance by these people, and they were all the best products. For example, the red cloth was too much, which could simply wrap the entire Yan State's privateer.

On the night of New Year's Eve, I went to the ancestral hall of the Jia family in Ningguo Mansion to worship my ancestors. This is not only due to the actual need of inheriting the family line and continuous incense, but also a grand ceremony for descendants to serve their ancestors and be grateful to their ancestors. In addition, it is to report to the grand occasion of the Jia family this year and pray for the blessing of our ancestors, so that the Jia family will continue to flourish in the future.

This year's scale is the center of all assumptions that have never been before. Whether it is close relatives or hiking, almost all people came to Jinling. Even in the other side, the tribesmen of each branch sent people to burn incense for the ancestors of Ningguo and Rongguo.

As for the next day of visiting the palace to congratulate, there is no such thing this year, because the emperor is still in the palace and cannot go in and out at will. What's more, those ministers want to meet the emperor, so they have to agree to Jia Ke.

So this year, all the court officials got up quickly and no longer had to go to the palace to congratulate the emperor. They all rested at home. Only a few people who were concerned about the court were very angry about this, but they dared not speak out, and were afraid that they would be discovered by Jia Ke. In the end, not only did they not even have their lives to be saved.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Jia Ke returned to the Zongli Yamen to work. At this time, it can be said that he is getting rid of the old and welcoming the new. Even the people in the world have the feeling that the emperor is no longer responsible. Jia Ke, who works in the Zongli Yamen, is the master of the world.

And Jia Ke has once again put his mind on the government.

What Jia Ke is most concerned about is the personal soldiers he sent to various places. How are he doing now? Have you taken control of his subordinates and started training?

Judging from the news sent by several intelligence departments, Jia Ke's personal soldiers sent to various places soon took charge of these troops.

Although there were still some complaints in the middle class, under the strong suppression of the generals and military governors from all over the country, these complaints quickly disappeared.

And these personal soldiers of Garko did not disappoint his expectations. As soon as they arrived at the army, they conquered the old fried dough sticks in the army with their excellent qualities and obeyed orders.

The subsequent training was even more desperate. Under the strong control of these newly appointed Qing soldiers, no one slacked off.

These people trained soldiers completely according to the small military strategy written by Jia Ke, so the training results were very fast. It didn't take long before these people were already a little soldiers.

Moreover, these people did not even have a rest during the Chinese New Year, and they still trained every day, and trained the soldiers below to complain. However, since these Qing soldiers led the way every time they trained, although the soldiers were a little complaining, they did not use any dissatisfaction, because even their thousand households struggled with them. What else could these soldiers say?

After Jia Ke received this news, he finally felt relieved. According to this training, these inland soldiers would use it in half a year. At that time, he could let go of his hands and feet and eliminate all the shortcomings of the imperial court.

After the New Year, Tang Kuai sent news to Jia Ke from the border.

This news is not very good. The rough meaning is that in recent years, Alslen Khan worked hard to conquer various tribes, and dispatched troops to expedition several Western expeditions, quelled the rebellion in the Western Regions, and confronted several matches with the great powers of the Western Regions. Although the winner was not decided, it also curbed the pace of the invasion of the Eastern Expeditions.

After seeing this news, Jia Ke realized that there was not much time left for herself.

Once Alslen Khan solves the matter in the west, he will definitely concentrate his efforts to retaliate against him.

Now Jia Ke’s main thing is to deal with the things in spring farming in Shaanxi. As long as he gets over this year, I think there will be nothing next year.

Besides, after Tian Ye from Jiangnan received the order from Brother Jia, he directly crossed the Yangtze River with his troops and headed straight to Jinling.

Jia Yucun, who was the prefect of Jinling, has long received news. Jia Yucun has been deeply rooted in Jinling over the years.

First, as Jia Ke’s person, the four major families in Jinling naturally support him with all their strength, so there is no constraint.

Secondly, he has some ability. Although he is a little corrupt, he has no fault in major matters, and the people also recognize him.

So he knew exactly what the Zhen family did this time. Jia Yucun also reminded Jia Ke several times through the intelligence system, but Jia Ke told him not to move, so there was no need to worry.

So Jia Yucun just collected intelligence and remained silent.

And this time, when Tian Ye and his men were heading towards Jinling, Jia Yucun knew that the time had come. This time, the great clan in Jiangnan might be completely finished.

Just three days after the New Year, Tian Ye brought his men to the wharf of Jinling Mansion.

Jia Yucun, the prefect of Jinling, had long brought officials at all levels from Jinling to welcome Tian Ye there.

Jia Yucun stood on the dock, putting a shed in his hand and looked out to the Yangtze River. He saw the Yangtze River rolling and the waves were surging. In a short while, forty or fifty sailboats appeared faintly on the surface of the river.

Jia Yucun had a little bad eyes and asked a minor official next to him, "Is that the official ship of the imperial envoy, take a closer look."

After hearing Jia Yucun's instructions, the minor official put on a pergola and looked carefully. He saw a flag hanging high on the pole of a ship that was ahead, with a large field character on the flag.

This is confirmed immediately. This fleet is sent to the imperial envoy.

"Mr. Jia is not wrong anymore. This is the official ship of the imperial envoy."

After hearing this, Jia Yucun immediately ordered the drums and music around him to be heard.

At this time, Tian Ye, who was on the official ship, also heard the sound of drums and music on the shore, so he came to the top floor of the official ship.

I saw the pier of Jinling Mansion, and the drums and music were ringing and the colorful flags were dancing. It seemed that this was welcoming me.

Tian Ye couldn't help but touch his beard and nodded, with a smile on his lips. This is different from that in the capital. Although he is in the capital, there are four or five people who are similar to him next to him. Besides, Jia Ke is staring at him, but he is just doing odd jobs, but when he gets to the place, he is the only one who is the only one.

After a while, the fleet leaned towards the pier of Jinling Mansion. Of course, the huge sailboat carrying Tian Ye was the first. The official boat was three stories high. When it arrived at the pier of Jinling Mansion, it seemed like a building was leaning against the shore.

As soon as Jia Yucun saw the boat coming, he immediately took three steps at the edge of the dock and immediately ordered someone to put it on the springboard.

The coolies next to them immediately carried the long springboard and placed the springboard on the boat. Jia Yucun ignored others and went from the springboard to the cabin in three steps.

Jia Yumura got on the boat, and the servant on the boat immediately blocked Jia Yumura outside and asked, "Who dares to trespass the imperial envoy's official ship."

Only then did Jia Yucun tidy up his official robe and bow to the servant and said, "This guy went in and informed him, and said that Jia Yucun, the governor of Jinling, asked to see the imperial envoy."

The servant was only angry and developed a temper along the way, but he didn't dare to neglect the prefect of Jinling. You should know which one of the officials in Jinling has no background, which is different from those ordinary officials in prefectures and counties.

So the servant bowed to Jia Yucun and went inside.

After a while, the boy came out again and bowed to Jia Yucun and said, "Sir, I thought too much just now. If you have offended me, you should be more responsible. We just said that you will let you in and reply."

Jia Yucun nodded, then smiled and said to the young man, "It's nothing." Then he entered the official ship.

Jia Yucun entered the cabin, and there was a servant waiting for him there.

When the boy saw Jia Yucun enter the cabin, he saluted him, and then he did not speak, so he led the way in front until there was a small hall on the second floor of the cabin, where Tian Ye was waiting for him.

Jia Yucun entered the small hall and saw Tian Ye sitting in the middle. He hurried forward to salute him.

"Xiaguan Jia Yucun, the governor of Jinling, has met the imperial envoy."

"Mr. Jia doesn't have to be too polite." After Tian Ye asked Jia Yucun to waive the gift, he ordered the servant next to him to pull a chair for Jia Yucun.

"Sir Jia, sit down and reply."

Jia Yucun complained and then sat down.

Why did Tian Ye treat Jia Yucun so well? It turned out that Tian Ye had known for a long time that Jia Ke forced the Ministry of Personnel to appoint Jia Yucun as the prefect of Jinling. He must have had a close relationship with Jia Ke. He had arrived at his territory and there was no need to offend him.

"Mr. Jia, you already know the purpose of my visit this time."

When Tian Ye said this, he was actually testing Jia Yucun. He received the imperial court and even knew very few people. If no one in the court informed him, how could Jia Yucun know the whole story?

Jia Yucun did not hide it either. He bowed to Tian Ye and said, "Report to the imperial envoy, I have received a letter from Prime Minister Jia a few days ago. In the letter, Lord Jia ordered me to cooperate with the actions of my lord."

After hearing this, Tian Ye also looked aware of it, and then said to Jia Yucun: "Since that's the case, you can go back and arrange accommodation and food for my soldiers first."

After hearing this, Jia Yucun was a little puzzled, and then bowed and asked, "I don't know what to do with the Zhen family?"

Tian Ye didn't say anything, but waved his hand to him and said, "I have a reason for this matter, you go down."

Jia Yucun looked at Tian Ye deeply without saying a word. He stood up and bowed to the sky and left the cabin.
