Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall

Jia Mu was entertaining Wang Yi's daughter-in-law and her queen, accompanied by Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue, Sister Feng and others.

Yuanchun, Yingchun, Baoyu, Daiyu, Baochai and others were sitting in the room talking through a screen.

Speaking of which, Wang Ziteng was also a grandfather, so he did not shy away from women in the Rongqing Hall and sat beside Jia Zheng to talk.

Prince Teng's son was entertained by Jia Lian in the front yard.

Jia Mu greeted her and asked, "How is Uncle Baoyu doing at home?"

Wang Ziteng said: "As far as the old lady is concerned, everything is fine at home."

Jia Mu sighed and said, "What happened last year was something no one could have expected. You often think about it in the open."

Looking at Wang Ziteng, who had gray hair and a depressed expression, the overwhelming joy that had surged in his heart became somewhat dull.

Her Jia family is a family that has accumulated a lot of good deeds. It seems that it is not easy for them to be frivolous towards the family of their in-laws just because of temporary success. Moreover, when the prince came here, he already had the intention of bowing his head.

Wang Ziteng nodded and said: "What the old lady said is that the ups and downs of the officialdom are inevitable."

Jia Zheng listened on the side and comforted him: "Brother Wang, you have the talent to lead the army. Now is the time for the country to employ people. It is not an extravagant hope to recover again."

Hearing this, Wang Ziteng sighed and said, "Even though I have the heart to serve the country, but after what happened in the past, the Holy One has doubts, and no one recommends me, there is nothing I can do."

Seeing this, Jia Zheng couldn't help but opened his mouth, and finally let out a long sigh.

Because Jia Heng is not here, he is not the leader of the Jia clan, and he is very soft-spoken in court, so it is not easy to make rash promises.

Mrs. Wang now looked at her brother's sad face, his face was gloomy, and she felt aggrieved.

While several people were talking, a woman quickly entered the Rongqing Hall.

"Brother Heng is here?" Jia Mu asked hurriedly.

The mother-in-law said: "It's the third master of the Shi family, and Miss Shi Da is here."

When Jia Mu heard this, she was slightly startled. She immediately looked at Sister Feng and Aunt Xue and said with a smile, "It's a coincidence that relatives from both families are here on the same day."

Aunt Xue smiled and said: "Old lady, I saw magpies chirping on the branches early in the morning, so they should be here."

This is a clever thing to say. How can there be any magpies at this time?

Jia's mother hurriedly ordered Jia Zheng beside her, saying: "Zheng'er, go and greet me quickly."

Jia Zheng responded quickly and prepared to stand up to greet him.

At this time, Wang Ziteng also stood up, looked at Jia Mu, and said, "I will also go to greet Brother Shi."

Jia Mu nodded and motioned to Wang Ziteng and Jia Zheng to go together.

Not long after, Zhongjing Hou Shi Ding and his wife Tian Shi led Shi Xiangyun, accompanied by their maids and maids, together with Jia Zheng and Wang Ziteng, into the Rongqing Hall to visit Jia's mother.

After Jia Heng was promoted to the deputy envoy of Jingying Jiedu, it spread to historians, and Baoling Hou Shi Nai and Zhongjing Hou Shi Ding were also quite shocked.

Fortunately, the former maintains his identity and has regained the trust of Emperor Chongping not long ago. He will soon go to the northwest with the Prince of Nan'an to check the border. If he comes back and says that he can't be found, he can be assigned to other provinces.

However, Shi Ding currently had no chance to appoint him, so he had to take Xiangyun with him, planning to go over to the government and talk to Jia Heng to find a way out.

In addition, Shi Ding also learned a piece of news from his interactions with relatives in the Prince's Mansion in Beijing.

Emperor Chongping set up the Military Aircraft Department and initially selected five major military aircraft. The Minister of Military Aircraft recommended the division officers (small military aircraft), who were like Ziweishe people to be on duty in the palace, accompanying the emperor and assisting in military affairs.

According to King Beijing, Jia Heng will most likely be dispatched by military aircraft.

There is no airtight wall in the world. When Emperor Chongping finalized the candidates for the five military aircraft, it was inevitably accompanied by separate conversations with Nan'an, Beijing, and Shi Jie, the Minister of War. These three people, especially the first two, wanted to recommend them to join the army.

The candidate for duty on a military aircraft may also be leaked.

Shi Ding has been concerned about it ever since.

Shi Ding stepped into the hall, led his wife and Xiangyun, bowed to Jia Mu who was sitting on the Arhat bed, and sat down on the chair next to Wang Ziteng.

It can be said that Shi Ding did not like Wang Ziteng very much, because the Jia family had no successors, and fortunately became powerful. Moreover, with the rise of Wang Ziteng, he did not pay much attention to the Shi family.

Mother Jia asked Shi Ding to sit aside, looked at Shi Xiangyun, and said with a smile: "Girl Yun, come here quickly. I have lost a lot of laughter in the past few days since you have been home."

On Shi Xiangyun's apple-round face, which was as red as mist and clouds, the smile was like a ten-mile peach blossom, innocent and brilliant, and he smiled sweetly and said: "Auntie."

Shi Ding smiled and asked: "Aunt, why don't you see Brother Heng?"

Jia Mu smiled and said, "I just sent someone to call me. They should be on the way now. You gentlemen are all here. You can talk together."

Looking at Wang Ziteng and his nephew, he felt somewhat clear in his heart.

As the saying goes, no matter what happens, go to the Three Treasures Hall. All the relatives of King Shi and his family came here to receive yesterday's imperial edict of being promoted to the Jiedu Envoy of the Beijing Camp.

Although the title of baron is powerful, after all, she is an old relative of the Jia family, and has been passed down from the four princes, eight princes, and twelve marquises all the way. The title of baron is still there, but it is very different to be promoted to deputy envoy of the Jingying Festival.

As expected, Shi Ding smiled and said: "Brother Heng is doing great now. At such a young age, he has been awarded the title of deputy envoy of Jingying Jiedushi. His future prospects are limitless."

Jia Mu said: "It is also his ability and the letter from the saints in the palace that value him."

Mrs. Wang listened a little irritably, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea.

When Wang Ziteng heard the word "Jingying", he felt on pins and needles and felt somewhat uncomfortable.

At this time, Lin Zhixiao's family came in and reported: "Old lady, Uncle Heng is here."

Everyone stopped talking and laughing and looked up towards the door.

I saw the young man wearing an azure round collar embroidered bamboo pattern brocade robe, sword-shaped eyebrows and bright eyes, and a calm face. Compared with the previous days when he was dressed in a gold-threaded python suit with a regimental seal, he showed his dignity. At this moment, he was wearing home robes, and more

A little dusty and elegant.

Tanchun also came with his maidservant Shu Shu.

As soon as she entered the house, Jia Mu smiled and said, "Brother Heng."

Jia Heng bowed to Jia Mu and asked, "What did the old lady call me for?"

Jia Mu said, "This is not Baoyu's uncle coming here. He is a relative and you are talking together."

The prince stood up, looked at the young man with complicated eyes, and called out: "Ziyu, you are fine."

Jia Heng looked at Wang Ziteng and nodded.

This scene fell in Mrs. Wang's eyes, and her eyebrows and heartbeats skipped a beat, and she felt her heart was filled with panic.

His brother has always been strong all his life, but now he bows to Uncle Heng in exchange for a nod?

At this time, Shi Ding also stood up and called out with a smile, "Ziyu didn't go to the capital camp today?"

The sight of both of them standing up to greet each other fell into Jia Mu's eyes, her old eyes flashed slightly, and she secretly said, "It's true."

Jia Heng said: "We'll go in the afternoon. In the morning we will mainly deal with the affairs of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division and the Jinyi Mansion."

Shi Ding looked at the young man opposite and said, "Ziyu has a heavy burden."

At this time, Xiang Yun approached with a smile and said, "Brother Heng."

Jia Heng looked at Xiangyun, smiled and said, "Sister Yun, I haven't seen you for a few days, how are you?"

Xiangyun chuckled and said, "Okay, I just miss Sister Lin and Sister Bao."

Shi Ding looked at the scene where the two were joking, his eyes flickered, and said: "Ziyu, Yun'er is a child who loves liveliness. We have fewer people of the same age in our family. This time, I will stay for two more days to accompany my aunt.

Celebrate the Lantern Festival."

Jia Mu smiled and said, "I'm worried about the lack of excitement in the house."

Sister Feng smiled and joked: "Old ancestor, you are growing old with us, and you still don't find it exciting."

Jia Mu said with a smile: "Just use this to block me. Girl Yun's liveliness is different from yours. This child, when I look at her, reminds me of my youth."

Sister Feng said with a smile: "No wonder our ancestors love Sister Yun so much."

Everyone laughed.

Jia Heng glanced at Xiangyun, and when he saw the red apple round face, he felt a strange feeling in his heart.

Shi Ding suddenly said: "Ziyu, now the Holy One has the heart to organize the army and carry out military affairs. Following Ziyu's advice, a military aircraft department will be set up to deal with military affairs in northern Xinjiang. I heard that five military aircraft ministers will be set up. Although they have no rank, they will serve as privy councilors.

Is Ziyu among them?"

As soon as these words came out, the girls who were chatting and laughing quietly stopped and looked at the young man and Shi Ding who were talking.

When Jia Heng heard this, he frowned and said: "In military appointments, Xiang Weishengxinganggang is arbitrary. We and other ministers only need to act according to orders. In addition, where did Shibo hear these...?"

Shi Ding smiled and said: "I just heard some rumors. Ziyu is now the deputy envoy of the Beijing Camp, the governor of Jinyi, and initiated the military aircraft department. If he is not listed among them, I will not believe it."

Jia Heng was silent for a moment.

Shi Ding said: "Moreover, I heard that the Minister of Military Aircraft can recommend one or two staff members to accompany the emperor and serve as counselors on military affairs."

As soon as he said this, Wang Ziteng paused at the teacup he raised in his hand, his eyes filled with light.

Jia Heng frowned, his eyes dark.

Shi Ding said: "The day before yesterday, I submitted an invitation to the Holy One, but was rejected by the Holy One. I, the Shi family, have been favored by the emperor. If I can enter the military aircraft station with military honors, I can also serve the country."

Although the military aircraft driver seems to be lower than the military aircraft minister, both of them are originally dispatched without rank and rank. Instead, they are an opportunity to get in touch with the emperor and the core of decision-making.
