At first glance, Jia Zheng's carriage looks simpler than Jiao Shun's.

Upon closer inspection, it turns out that it is just a low-key luxury. The moire copper hooks for hanging car curtains are enough for ordinary people to spend two or three years on.

This can still be seen.

There are even more invisible details.

For example, the elegant fragrance that can be smelled as soon as you get in the car is created every morning and evening with scented tablets that are more expensive than gold.

But as soon as Jiao Shun sat down in the car, Jia Zheng handed over a hand stove with a gilt wire cage.

Jiao Shun had seen this thing before, but he didn't know what mechanism it contained. It would make a sizzling sound when the temperature was too high, and it would sound a bird's warning when the temperature was too low. It was extremely delicate.

"Master Zheng can use it for his own use."

Jiao Shun said with a smile: "I am wearing thick clothes today, but I was very anxious in the car."

"You young people are different after all."

Jia Zheng also put the hand stove back to its original place, and sighed: "I just said that I wanted to go out of the capital to walk around, and I was trying to persuade others to stop me. It shows that I am really old."

"how come!"

Jiao Shun said hurriedly: "You are in the prime of life now. If this is not the case, how could your name be called so quickly in the Yamen?"

Having said that, in fact, the reason why Jia Zheng's quota was determined so quickly was all because of his status as the 'king of the country' at that time. Although he was usually regarded as an alien by the literati, who dared to confront him face to face?

Did he put it right?

The foreign ministers who were originally interested in this job all stopped after hearing that Jiao Shun recommended Jia Zheng. Could this job just fall on him?

But Jia Zheng obviously didn't know the inside story.

Hearing Jiao Shun's sweet words, he couldn't help but stroke his beard and chuckle, and waved his hands: "After all, it is nothing compared to when I was young. As long as I can achieve the four words "older and stronger" and live up to the trust of the court, I will be satisfied.

"

As he said that, he couldn't help but enjoy the sight of touring the country next year.

Judging from the meaning behind his words, it seems that he wants to grasp a few examples to show off his majesty and evil aura.

Jiao Shun quickly reminded: "The main purpose of this inspection is to pave the way for the New Deal. If there is a commotion and the grass and trees are in disarray, I am afraid that the people below will be resistant to the New Deal - I have been in the officialdom for a long time, so I naturally understand this better than I do."

Jia Zheng woke up and nodded with some disappointment: "What my nephew said is that when I go out on business this time, I still have to put national affairs first."

This shouldn’t be considered a state matter, right?

After having been in contact with Jia Zheng for a long time, Jiao Shun found that this old man always liked to think about things in his head, and he could associate them with national affairs and political affairs.

Fortunately, Jiao Shun had experienced in the key political situation in his previous life and was quite proficient in the art of "yin [guo] small [fen] seeing [jie] big [du]", so he was able to keep up with Jia Zheng's ideas.

If not, how could he be regarded by Jia Zheng as his old friend and even his own reflection in just one month?

Because although this was a wake-up call, it still dampened Jia Zheng's interest, so he had to find another way to make up for it.

So Jiao picked up some pretentious stories about officialdom and told a few of them while concealing the dynasty background. Jia Zheng's eyes lit up when he heard them, and he clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful."

For a long time after that, he seemed to have inserted himself into similar scenes, and his original solemn expression showed signs of breaking down.

It wasn't until he was getting close to the Yamen that Jia Zheng thought of business and said hurriedly: "I have decided to leave Beijing next spring, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to take care of the construction of the provincial residence. Therefore, I would like to ask my nephew to help me build it."

Supervisor, so as not to cause chaos in the house after I leave."

Supervisor?

For a moment, Jiao Shun was really moved.

He even fantasized about taking the opportunity to build some kind of secret passage mechanism, so that he could go out day and night in the Grand View Garden to steal incense and jade.

But this is just a wild thought.

I really want to take this job, but I am afraid of how much trouble I will get into.

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate."

At that moment, he quickly shied away: "Not to mention my background, I'm afraid everyone will not accept it. Just my official duties in the yamen will not be delayed for a long time."

In fact, official duties are just a reason. The main reason is that how can the moths everywhere trust him to supervise the work?

At that time, it will inevitably attract countless criticisms and attempts to win over, and in the end, either everyone in the government will be offended, or they will have no choice but to join in their evil deeds.

But between these two outcomes, Jiao Shun didn't want to choose either one.

"My good nephew is worrying too much."

Jia Zheng hurriedly explained: "There is no need to keep an eye on them. My nephew can just go around more when he has free time and help them check for leaks and fill in the gaps."

"In this case, there is no need to bear the title of 'supervisor'. If I see anything wrong, I will remind you."

Because Jiao Shun refused to give up, Jia Zheng tried to persuade him a few times, but when he saw the yamen gate, he had to give up temporarily.

Not to mention how busy they were when they arrived at the Yamen.

But at the same time.

Rongguo Mansion is also in a state of turmoil due to the "Ye Dou" incident.

It stands to reason that if the Yingchun incident really breaks out, Mrs. Xing, as a legitimate mother, will never get anything good.

However, she decided that Yingchun was raised in the second room, and that Wang Xifeng and Mrs. Wang's aunt and nephew were more responsible in terms of responsibility, so she started tossing it regardless, with the attitude of killing a thousand enemies and damaging herself eight hundred.

Because Wang Xifeng tried her best to block her, she received a few words of "protection" and "connivance" from her, as well as indifferent scolding and ridicule to her sister-in-law, which made her lose face in front of all the ladies in charge.

Even Mrs. Wang was annoyed by her.

In the end, Mrs.

Wang Xifeng was so angry that she fell down and fell ill just like that.

Because Mrs. Wang had also been implicated, she did not want to intervene at this time, so she pushed Li Wan to the front desk.

After Li Wan temporarily took power, the first thing he did was seconded Ping'er, with Yuanyang as his assistant, and he worked from morning to night like three meetings every day, although due to the construction of the courtyard, there was a commotion everywhere.

, but it never caused any big disturbance.

After a few days, not to mention what others said, Mrs. Xing, the instigator, regretted it endlessly.

She originally wanted to take this opportunity to insult Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng's aunt and nephew, but unexpectedly, Wang Xifeng fell ill because of this, and Li Wan came to take charge instead.

This niece is replaced by a daughter-in-law, and Mrs. Wang is not at a disadvantage either inside or outside.

However, the whole incident was rumored to be an internal dispute between the second wife's mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law, and it was also said that the big fight that night was actually caused by the second girl's 'Sifan'.

According to this calculation, he originally killed one thousand enemies and suffered a loss of eight hundred, but ended up killing two hundred enemies and losing three thousand!

It seemed as if Mrs. Xing was regretful.

Firstly, he was annoyed that Wang Xifeng was useless and suddenly fell ill, which allowed Li Wan to take advantage of the dead wood; secondly, he blamed Jia Yingchun for causing trouble because her maid and mother-in-law made such a big fuss, so how could she end up in this situation?

?

She was somewhat out of reach of Wang Xifeng, but recently Yingchun had been kept by her side for training.

Therefore, Mrs. Xing's anger and resentment were all directed at Yingchun, completely forgetting her previous promise not to let Yingchun suffer any more cowardice.

Even though Yingchun had always been submissive and swallowed her anger, her torture for two or three days was unbearable.

After finally observing the rules that day, I went home and said to the crying and scolding Siqi: "I told you not to make trouble, but you insist on making trouble. Now that you are in this situation, you have fulfilled your wish!"

Siqi also received twenty blows for starting the fight.

Now when she heard that Yingchun was all to blame, she couldn't help but protest: "It's not me who sold the girl behind her back to seek glory! The girl refused to listen to me at first and drove away Grandma Wang, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law; that night I restrained her

The two of them originally wanted to help the girl set some rules, but the girl came out to interfere again, and as a result, the old godly woman escaped and ran around the yard shouting, which alerted the woman who had been up late at night!"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but shed tears and said: "I only think about the girl's good, and whatever I do or say is wrong in the girl's eyes. In this case, you might as well kick me out too, but leave me alone."

What are you doing here?!"

"Since my wife never kicked you out, how could I dare to cause trouble?"

Yingchun wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said coldly: "I just ask you to calm down and don't do anything in my name if anything happens. Let's live peacefully in this home for a few years, and we will eventually get through it."

The day we break up!"

I heard that she regarded the relationship between master and servant as worthless, and actually looked forward to the day when they could escape and break up.

Si Qi became increasingly discouraged, and since then he and Yingchun have drifted apart. Although they are still master and servant in name, in reality they are like strangers in private.

This kind of relationship, if it were with the master next to him, he would probably not be able to tolerate it long ago.

Pian Jia Yingchun actually enjoyed it so much that she even wished that everyone around her was like this so that she could be pure and at ease.
