Chapter 239 Qin Keqing enters the Prince of Wu County
Jia Yun asked Tong Dunxing to tell Qin Keqing that Qin Keqing should visit Bu Wuniang at the Wujun Prince's Mansion the next morning.
It was naturally inconvenient for Qin Keqing to go to the palace to see him in the name of meeting him directly, but it was okay to do so in the name of visiting Bu Wuniang.
Bu Wuniang and Qin Keqing had met before. At first, Bu Wuniang wanted Jia Yun to marry Qin Keqing, because Bu Wuniang felt that Qin Keqing was not only as beautiful as a fairy, but also seemed to have a good personality.
After Jia Yun finished explaining Qin Keqing's affairs, Tong Dunxing still refused to leave, showing a coy look.
When Jia Yun saw him like this, she knew that he still had something to do, so she smiled and asked, "What else do you have to do?"
Tong Dunxing said awkwardly: "Your Majesty, um...I...my grandfather told me last night to ask you to transfer me to you again."
When Jia Yun sent Tong Dunxing to protect Qin Keqing, Tong Dunxing was unwilling. Tong Dunxing believed that he would be more promising by guarding Jia Yun, and Tong Dunxing's grandfather Lao Tongsheng also believed so.
Jia Yun gave Tong Dunxing a reward of two taels of silver per month and promised to transfer Tong Dunxing back to her in one or two years, so Tong Dunxing was willing.
But now, only a year has passed, and Tong Dunxing can't wait to return to Jia Yun.
Lao Tongsheng asked Tong Dunxing this way last night.
Because Jia Yun has become the prince and county king, Tong Dunxing will have a good future when he returns to Jia Yun, and can even be recommended by Jia Yun as a palace guard of high rank. If he continues to protect a young lady like Qin Keqing, in the old Tongsheng
It seems stupid.
Jia Yun said: "You continue to protect Miss Qin. Within this year, I will definitely transfer you back to me. At that time, I will recommend you as a fifth-grade palace guard!"
Tong Dunxing's eyes lit up and he asked excitedly: "Really?"
If he becomes a fifth-grade palace guard, it will be a meteoric rise for him.
Jia Yun said: "As long as you continue to protect Miss Qin well this year, I will not break your promise."
Nowadays, Lao Tongsheng is still working as a teacher in Jia Yun's house. Even if they are attacked, Zijuan has become Jia Yun's housemate, and the two of them are still studying and literacy with Lao Tongsheng.
Jia Yun respected this old Tongsheng, and he also appreciated Tong Dunxing.
Tong Dunxing smiled and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely work harder to protect Miss Qin."
After Tong Dunxing left, Jia Yun went to Bu Wuniang's courtyard to find Bu Wuniang.
The announcement of Jia Yun's life experience inevitably made Bu Wuniang's status as the wife of the family awkward. After all, she was not the biological mother but the adoptive mother, and she was the adoptive mother who secretly adopted Jia Yun.
However, Jia Yun has already issued an order. Bu Wuniang will still be the wife of the house from now on. If anyone talks about Bu Wuniang's identity, he will be punished once found out.
Bu Wuniang was happy about this. She was used to the life of a wealthy wife. Moreover, in her heart, Jia Yun was still like her biological son. She really loved Jia Yun and did not want to be separated from her.
Jia Yun found Bu Wuniang, rejected the others, and said to Bu Wuniang: "Mother, Miss Qin Keqing will come to visit you the morning after tomorrow."
Bu Wuniang was surprised when she heard this: "Why did she come to visit me suddenly?"
Jia Yun said shamelessly: "Actually, she wanted to come to see me, but she couldn't do it directly in the name of meeting me, so I asked her to come in the name of visiting my mother."
Bu Wuniang: "..."
Her eyes looking at Jia Yun became strange: "Are you very close to Miss Qin?"
Jia Yun immediately told Bu Wuniang in detail about his relationship with Qin Keqing, and even revealed his plan to make Qin Keqing a concubine in the future.
Bu Wuniang couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this. She didn't expect that Qin Keqing, a young lady who was born into an official family and a beauty as beautiful as a fairy, would have been in love with Jia Yun for a long time and was even willing to be Jia Yun's concubine.
If Bu Wuniang heard this before Jia Yun became the prince and county king, she would definitely feel that Jia Yun was very lucky. But now that Jia Yun has become the prince and county king, in this case, let alone Qin Ye, even if Qin Ye is dead.
If the industry is not dead, Qin Keqing can become Jia Yun's concubine, which is not an insult to her.
Regarding the matter between himself and Qin Keqing, Jia Yun also asked Bu Wuniang to keep it a secret. He now has great trust in Bu Wuniang's ability to speak strictly.
…
…
According to the system of the Qing Dynasty, the prince can deploy fifteen royal guards, including six first-class guards (from the third rank), four second-class guards (from the fourth rank), five third-class guards (from the fifth rank),
In addition, one hundred and fifty soldiers can be deployed!
In addition to guards and soldiers, the county prince's palace can also be equipped with the following housekeepers:
A person with a long history, the third rank, the chief steward of the palace.
Three Sanqilang, from the fourth rank, assisted the chief historian in handling the affairs of the palace.
There are four people in charge of the ceremony, two from the fifth rank and two from the sixth rank, who are in charge of the ceremony, guidance and other matters.
There are three people in charge, and they are in the sixth grade.
A typical meal for one person, from six items.
There are two treasurers, from the seventh rank.
There are four craftsmen, from the eighth grade.
There are three chief shepherds, from the eighth grade.
Chang Shi, Sanqi Lang, and Dian Yi are all military attachés.
Guanling, dianshan, treasurer, craftsman, and shepherd are all civil officials.
In addition, the county prince's palace can also be equipped with twenty eunuchs, including chief eunuchs, casual eunuchs, junior eunuchs, and casual eunuchs.
Well……
In fact, Jia Yun had already been assigned a eunuch when he was promoted from the second-grade military attache. In the Qing Dynasty, second-grade high-ranking officials could be assigned a eunuch.
Royal guards, personal soldiers, chief historians, casual knights, rituals, leaders, cooks, treasurers, craftsmen, chief shepherds, eunuchs...
Among these people, the prince himself can appoint chief historians and recruit personal soldiers, but other guard officials and eunuchs are allocated by the court. The prince has the right to return and recommend but not the right to appoint!
As a result, it is inevitable that there will be spies from Emperor Tianzhi and even spies from other people in Jia Yun's palace in the future.
There is nothing you can do about it. If you become a prince or a prince, you will inevitably lose some freedom.
The royal palace system of the Qing Dynasty was already very good. In comparison, the royal palace system of the Ming Dynasty was much stricter. The princes were not allowed to appoint chief historians themselves. Moreover, the officials assigned to the royal palace were generally required to be loyal to the emperor.
Being loyal to the prince is equivalent to "supervising" the prince.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Now, Jia Yun can appoint Chang Shi, the chief steward of the county palace, and Jia Yun decided to appoint Yu Zhu as Chang Shi, which means that Yu Zhu suddenly became
A third-grade military attaché!
However, Yu Zhu's long history is not comparable to that of a third-rank military attache in the imperial court. Once Jia Yun dismisses him, he will be reduced to a person without an official position, and his interests are closely tied to Jia Yun.
Jia Yun has the right to refund and recommend other guards and eunuchs in the palace.
This is also very good.
If Jia Yun is dissatisfied with any of the escort officials and eunuchs, she can return them to the court, and the court will redistribute them.
Jia Yun can also recommend people to serve as security officials in his palace, but this recommendation is limited.
For example, Tong Dunxing was only a private soldier before. Jia Yun could only recommend him as a third-class palace guard from the fifth rank. If Jia Yun was dissatisfied with him in the future and returned him, he would probably not have a chance based on his resume.
If he continues to serve as a military attache elsewhere, his interests are closely tied to Jia Yun.
For another example, Jia Yun could only recommend a few of the fifteen palace guards, but the court would not allow more than one.
…
…
The next day, February 23rd.
In the morning, fifty officers and soldiers wearing armor suddenly arrived at the carriage and carriage alley and outside Jia Yun's residence.
These fifty officers and soldiers are the personal soldiers Jia Yun asked the court to assign to him. They are all from the Imperial Guard!
Jia Yun can now have one hundred and fifty personal soldiers, but he only has about twenty personal soldiers, so he took the time to go to the Ministry of War yesterday morning and asked the Ministry of War to allocate fifty personal soldiers to him.
As a result, he had more than seventy soldiers.
There are still more than seventy people left, and Jia Yun has no plans to let the Ministry of War allocate them for the time being. He will keep these places for the time being and recruit them himself in the future.
If the number of soldiers in the prince's palace or the county prince's palace is less than the quota, the court will also pay the salary of the missing soldiers, and this salary can be freely used by the prince's palace.
Therefore, most of the royal palaces of the Qing Dynasty did not have enough soldiers, so they regarded the salaries of the missing soldiers as an income.
After fifty soldiers from the Imperial Guard arrived at the mansion in Che, Seo and Ma Hutong, Jia Yun began to move.
They moved from the mansion in Che, Seo and Ma Hutong to Prince Wu's Mansion. Prince Wu's Mansion is located in the east city of Shenjing City. The distance between the two is not very close, which means today's move is more troublesome.
Fortunately, Jia Yun's house now has a lot of manpower, and there are more than seventy soldiers. In addition, Jia Yun's house was already sorting things out yesterday, so it will be enough to move them all in one day today.
Jia Yun's Wujun Prince's Mansion was originally the residence of Xia Xu, but Xia Xu's belongings had been emptied out, and the guards, eunuchs, and servants who originally belonged to Xia Xu had all left. However, Xia Xu was not executed and was killed by Emperor Tianzhi.
Imprisoned.
Therefore, what greeted Jia Yun today was an empty Wujun Prince's Mansion.
At present, the imperial court has only allocated fifty personal soldiers to Jia Yun. The other guard officials and eunuchs have not yet had time to be allocated, and will be allocated one after another in the next few days.
Although Jia Yun currently does not have any escort officials or eunuchs, the luxury and grandeur of a Wujun prince's palace is already extraordinary. Xiren, Zijuan, Qingwen, Xiangling, Liu Wuer and others all admired it again and again.
Even Bu Wuniang, who went to the palace to meet Emperor Tianzhi, couldn't help but admire him.
Prince Wu's Mansion is larger and more luxurious than Rongguo's Mansion. Moreover, Rongguo's Mansion does not have palaces, but Prince Wu's Mansion does!
Prince Wujun's Mansion also has a large back garden. In the back garden, there are springs, rocks, trees, pavilions and pavilions. The scenery is very good. Even if this back garden is not as good as the Grand View Garden later in the original novel, it is better than Huifang Garden in Ningguo Mansion.
It won't be any worse.
…
…
The next morning, Jia Yun was waiting for the arrival of Qin Keqing in the palace. According to his arrangement, Qin Keqing would come to the Prince of Wujun this morning in the name of visiting Bu Wuniang.
While Jia Yun was waiting for Qin Keqing, an uninvited guest suddenly came to the door.
It’s Xue Pan!
Jia Yun speculated that this guy probably came to the palace to see him today because he had some serious business, so he sent someone to bring Xue Pan directly to the main hall.
Xue Pan first passed the first palace gate, then turned around a front hall, then passed the second palace gate, and walked for a while before arriving at the main hall.
Xue Pan was stunned to see the palaces and palaces along the way and the soldiers everywhere.
But this guy was really careless. When he walked into the main hall and saw Jia Yun wearing the python robe of the county king and the king's hat with a hairpin, although he was in awe, he still greeted him with a habitual smile: "Yun... Your Highness, you...
This royal palace is so magnificent!”
Jia Yun didn't want to talk to this guy, so she asked directly: "What do you mean when you come to see me today?"
Xue Pan chuckled and said: "Your Majesty, I came to see you today because I have a happy event to tell you."
Jia Yun asked: "What's the matter?"
Xue Pan said proudly: "My mother asked me to tell you that as long as you are willing to marry my sister as a princess, my mother will prepare a dowry worth 150,000 taels of silver for my sister!"
When Jia Yun heard this, she sighed in her heart: Aunt Xue is so generous this time!
Previously, when he was commanding the envoy from the Second Rank Jinyi Mansion, he had expected that once Xue Baochai married her, Aunt Xue would let Xue Baochai bring a lot of dowry.
And now that he is the prince and king of the county, he also specifically asked Aunt Xue to let Xue Baochai bring more dowry. In this case, Aunt Xue will naturally prepare even more dowry.
Even so, the dowry worth 150,000 taels of silver exceeded Jia Yun's expectations.
Jia Yun would not be surprised. He immediately speculated that Aunt Xue prepared so much dowry mainly because she was afraid that he would not want to marry Xue Baochai as his princess. It was obviously because of this that Xue Pan rushed to visit him today to tell him about the matter in advance.
Jia Yun said: "I already know this, so go to your house."
Xue Pan: "..."
Originally, he thought that when he told Jia Yun about this, Jia Yun would be excited and enthusiastic about him, but what happened?
Xue Pan was depressed: "My lord, are you willing to marry my sister as your princess?"
Jia Yun frowned: "I have already told Miss Baochai about this matter, so there is no need to reply again."
Xue Pan became excited: "In other words, you are willing to marry my sister as your princess?"
Jia Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he understood Xue Pan's character and was not surprised.
Jia Yun said: "Go to your house!"
Xue Pan was anxious and hurriedly smiled again: "I have nothing to do today. I wonder if you can treat me as a host at noon?"
He had another purpose today, that is, he wanted to visit Jia Yun's palace, and he also wanted to take the opportunity to curry favor with Jia Yun, the prince and county king.
Jia Yun's expression became serious and she said in a deep voice: "The king has something to do today, so go to your house!"
Xue Pan: "..."
After being stunned for a moment, Xue Pan was still afraid and did not dare to pester anymore, so he turned and walked away gloomily.
Looking at Xue Pan's leaving figure, Jia Yun sighed in her heart: This Xue Pan needs to be rectified in the future!
Not long after Xue Pan left, the attacker came to Jia Yun: "Your Majesty, Miss Qin is here and has already gone to Madam's Yangenzhai!"
Yang'enzhai is located in the inner palace on the West Road of Wujun Prince's Mansion. It is equivalent to the Bu Wuniang Courtyard in Jia Yun's previous residence, but it is much more luxurious and imposing, even better than Jia Mu's Courtyard in Rongguo Mansion!
The name "Yang'enzhai" was given by Jia Yun. He just moved here yesterday and gave this name to Bu Wuniang's residence. The meaning is very simple, Bu Wuniang has shown kindness to him in raising him.
Immediately, Jia Yun walked towards Yangenzhai to see Qin Keqing...
Today is Qin Keqing's first visit to Prince Wu's Mansion, and if nothing unexpected happens, she will become the concubine here soon.
