Chapter 130 Appease(1/2)
Finally, there is still a situation where you can live in peace.
Niu Ben instructed Wang Gui to ask someone to take Jia Huan's plain clothes for exchange, and prepare washing water.
Then someone went to prepare the horses.
He and the three brothers of the Han family also went back to their rooms and changed into white clothes, and then everyone set off.
Zhong Wei and others guarded the surroundings, saying that they were to prevent the evil people from committing crimes again.
Niu Ben Jia Huan and others naturally would not pay attention to these things, and the group ran wildly.
When I arrived at the city gate in the south, I found that the city gate had been martial law. There were so many soldiers in black clothes and black armor than usual, and they were so dark.
As Niu Ben and Jia Huan, they naturally don’t have to wait in line like ordinary people. In order to prevent the powerful and powerful from riding a horse and colliding with ordinary people, the gates of each city in Daqin were separated into two paths, one for ordinary people to move around, and the other for the powerful and powerful carriages and horses to drive.
So everyone did not waste much time at the city gate. After learning that the horse team owner was the grandson of Duke Rong and the grandson of Duke Zhenguo, he specially assigned several cavalrymen to escort Jia Huan back to his house.
At this time, Zhuque Street no longer had the bustling crowds of yesterday, and it became much calmer.
Without spending too much time, Jia Huan and his party arrived in front of the gate of Rongguo Mansion on Gonghou Street.
The two rows of big red lanterns on the main entrance of Rongguo Mansion have been replaced, replacing white lanterns with black and white characters.
The doormen also wore mourning clothes, and the crying in the mansion shook the sky.
Jia Huan ignored the greetings of the people, thanked the guards and cavalry, and walked straight to the main hall from Niu Ben and others.
There were people everywhere in the mansion at this moment. In addition to the servants in the mansion, Jia Huan also saw some people dressed in the same dress as Zhong Wei and the gatekeepers.
Those should be Black Ice Platform and military personnel respectively.
Niu Ben grabbed Jia Huan who was rushing in without hesitation, let him stand, and greeted some big shots.
The Jia family was already in a mess at this moment, and no one was there to entertain him.
Jia Huan asked the cow to help him deal with it first. He had to meet Jia Zheng and Jia Mu first, and it was not appropriate for him to be here to serve guests.
Niu Ben glanced at Jia Huan with a profound meaning and then responded.
Jia Huan did not stop and went straight to Rongxi Hall.
Rongxi Hall is the real main hall of the Jia Mansion.
Sure enough, the main hall was dressed up as a mourning hall, and in the middle, a coffin was parked there.
Under the hall, Jia Lian wrapped gauze on his head and knelt there to burn paper to be a filial son.
Jia Zhengze looked in a panic and sat aside with a sad face, sighing, and several people around him were persuading him.
"Father!"
When he walked up to him, Jia Huan cried out in grief, and then he saw Jia Zheng suddenly looked up at him. His eyes were so complicated that Jia Huan had never seen him before.
Jia Huan was stunned, but found that Jia Zheng's complicated gaze seemed to have never appeared before, and he returned to a sad look. He said, "You are back, go and kowtow to the master first."
Jia Huan did not object, knelt down to the hall, bowed respectfully to the coffin, and comforted Jia Lian, who was a filial son.
Jia Lian looked up at Jia Huan, his eyes were also a little complicated. He whispered hoarsely and said, "The third brother is back?"
Jia Huan nodded and said softly: "Second brother, even if you are sad, you must pay attention to your health. There are still many things waiting for you to do."
Jia Lian looked at Jia Huan with red eyes for a while, then nodded and said, "Thank you, third brother."
After sighing, Jia Huan whispered: "Don't worry, my second brother, my oath that day is still valid. I will never worry about the title of Rongguo Mansion."
After saying that, he ignored Jia Lian, who suddenly looked up at him, stood up and walked towards Jia Zheng.
"Father, this is not possible. No one is taking care of him, and he is in a mess. Many people from the Duke and Marquis' Mansion have come, and only let Lai Da and Lin Zhixiao take care of him, which is too negligent. My son was in a hurry to see you and his ancestors just now, so let Brother Niu Ben take care of him for the time being, but after all, it is not a long-term method. Look..."
Jia Huan whispered.
Upon hearing this, Jia Zheng looked at Jia Huan deeply again and said, "Okay, I'll go ahead and take care of him first."
Jia Huan hesitated and said, "It's from the east..."
Jia Zheng shouted in a low voice: "There is a arrangement for respecting the master over there, so you don't have to worry."
Jia Huan nodded and said, "Then the kid will go and see the ancestors and aunts."
Jia Zheng nodded and said, "Brother Huan, you have to remember that family harmony can bring prosperity."
Jia Huan nodded again and whispered: "Don't worry, my father, I haven't forgotten my vows before the eve, and I will not fight with Brother Lian."
After Jia Zheng glanced at Jia Huan blankly, he said, "You go and see your grandmother."
Jia Huan nodded and walked towards Jia Mu's courtyard.
Along the way, Jia Huan saw many foreign relatives who came to visit Jia Mu. Although the female relatives were a little surprised to see Jia Huan, they did not shy away because he was young.
After entering Rongqing Hall, Jia Mu sat on the soft couch with a sad look on her face. There were several women dressed in noble ladies sitting around her, one of whom was Niu Jizong's wife.
Mrs. Xing Wang Er was also there, and Mrs. Xing just cried in tears and sat there like a wooden man.
Mrs. Wang also frowned, not knowing what she was thinking.
After Jia Huan entered the hall, he knelt down to invite his wife to Jia Mu. Although Jia Mu looked sad, she still did not forget to introduce her to the people around her, saying, "This is my third grandson, named Jia Huan. Now he is practicing martial arts with the prince of Zhenguo and several young men from the Dingjun Bo Mansion in the village outside the city. Brother Huan, have you seen the Concubine Nan'an?"
The Concubine Nan'an is the princess of the Prince of Nan'an.
Jia Huan has now found out that the second-class auxiliary duke who inherited the title of Nan'an County Prince's Mansion is the second-class auxiliary duke.
However, this auxiliary Duke has a completely different concept from the Duke of Rongning and Ning.
This auxiliary duke is also a clan relative, and is according to the inheritance of the titles of the royal family.
The Qin royal family did not have hereditary titles.
The first grade is naturally the prince, the second is the prince, the second is the Duke of Zhenguo (different from the title of Zhenguo Duke's Mansion), and the second is the Duke of Supplementary Kingdom, and then the general title that the Jia family has inherited.
However, this kind of clan title is not bad. As long as the family has children who have achieved success in martial arts, they can go to the clan mansion to take the title. After passing, they can be converted to the title of relatives and nobles. If they make more contributions, they can also be promoted layer by layer. There is no need to work hard all their lives like ordinary people, but they may not be able to get a title in the end.
This is the greatest benefit of Shijue.
After a circle of his heart, Jia Huan saluted respectfully to Concubine Nan'an and said, "Goodbye Jia Huan, I've seen the old Concubine!"
Concubine Nan'an would also speak. After carefully looking at Jia Huan, she said to Jia Mu: "Old lady, if you say something inappropriate, it is certainly sad to suffer a great disaster in the Jia family, but you still have to take care of your health. Nothing else, just because you have such a good grandson, don't you?"
Jia Mu sighed and said, "My grandson is good, but who would have thought that there would be such a murderer in this capital of Shenjing to bring me...ah!"
Jia Mu's words silenced everyone. Who can think of such a thing?
It’s been many years since the Qin Dynasty was killed, but those who were killed were basically killed by the royal family and then the whole family was implicated.
In addition, the way of death of Jia She and others was beyond imagination.
After so many years of peace in the Qin Dynasty, how could such a thing happen?
While everyone was silent, Jia Huan saluted to Niu Jizong's wife Guo and said, "My nephew has seen his aunt, and his brother Niu Ben is here, and is helping my father receive visitors in front of me."
Guo's performance was completely different from when he met Jia Huan the day before yesterday. She sat there with great dignity and decent, nodded slightly, and said, "It's all right."
Upon hearing this, Jia Mu looked at Guo with gratitude and said, "The family is in chaos, it's a joke, thanks to your brother's help."
Guo did not dare to accept Jia Mu's thanks, so he quickly stood up and said politely.
After Jia Mu waved her hand and asked her to sit down, she said to Jia Huan: "Brother Huan, you go to the front to help too. Now at home... Brother Lian is guarding the funeral hall, and the foreign guests can only rely on your father and you, so you must be treated."
Jia Huan nodded and said, "Yes, ancestor, then I'll go ahead."
Jia Mu sighed and waved her hand and let him go.
After Jia Huan withdrew, he turned around and left Rongqing Hall. However, he had just walked twice. Wang Xifeng, wearing a white filial piety uniform, came by a large group of women and maids. Her eyes were also red, but the spirit in her eyes...
How to say it? There are naturally sadness, but Jia Huan always feels that under the sadness, there is a hint of excitement that cannot be concealed.
I think so, there are two reasons why Wang Xifeng was able to do this in the Jia Mansion.
First, she is good at doing things, and her personality is in line with the temperament of Mrs. Jia Shi and is very good-looking, so she is loved by Mrs. Jia.
Secondly, she is Mrs. Wang's niece.
It is these two reasons. As for her, she is still the daughter-in-law of Jia She and Mrs. Xing...
Well, this condition is vicious and deducting points.
For Wang Xifeng, there are not many people who can disgust her in the Jia family. Jia She and Mrs. Xing are definitely among the top two, and the rankings are not different.
But it is mainly about Jia She.
The reason is very simple. Mrs. Xing is just a house filled in with no background in her mother and has not given birth to children for Jia She.
All her glory comes from Jia She. If Jia She is eliminated, she will not be able to become majestic. In the future, she will be a clay-shaped Bodhisattva at most.
This is also the reason why Mrs. Xing is so sad today...
Therefore, Wang Xifeng cried because of the death of Jia She because she had to cry in terms of etiquette, but she had to say how sad she was.
Haha, the stone lions at the gate of Rongguo Mansion will laugh out loud.
In fact, Jia Huan just now discovered that even Jia Lian was crying a little too deliberately...
However, when Wang Xifeng, who was coming towards him, her expression suddenly changed.
If anyone can stop her from becoming the wife of the imperial decree now, there is no doubt that only Jia Huan has this ability.
To be continued...
