Chapter 97 The Prince of Beijing County hosted a banquet
That morning, Jia Yun gave Zijuan one hundred and fifty taels of property, without confessing to Zijuan how he got the property.
Immediately, Jia Yun went to Ni Er's house.
With Jia Yun's current status, Ni Er naturally fawned over him even more.
Jia Yun treated Ni Er to a meal at a restaurant at noon and asked Ni Er to help with the bill. Ni Er agreed without hesitation.
And that afternoon, Jia Yun bought a large carriage with the help of Yu Zhu.
The family now needs a carriage. With the carriage, it is convenient for Xiren and Zijuan to travel. Even Bu Wuniang is now a wife who needs a carriage.
When Yu Zhu was in Cao Mansion before, he bought horses and carriages for Cao Mansion.
With Yu Zhu's help, Jia Yun not only bought a good carriage this time, but the price was also favorable.
Even so, the horse and cart still cost eighty taels of silver.
Horses in the Qing Dynasty are indeed very expensive. An ordinary horse costs about fifty taels of silver. The carriage Jia Yun bought this time has a good horse and the carriage is not small and gorgeous. Eighty taels of silver is already considered a bargain.
.
In fact, Jia Yun could also ask Ni Er for help in this matter. Ni Er made friends with a horse dealer named Wang Duanji.
It’s just that Jia Yun feels that it’s more reliable to approach Yu Zhu for this kind of thing, and Ni Er has already asked for the account for him this time, so there is no need to owe Ni Er any favors about the carriage.
Jia Yun can also go to Rongguo Mansion to ask for a carriage. Whether it is Jia Zheng, Wang Xifeng, or even Jia's mother, this can be done, and it probably won't cost any money.
But it’s better not to owe another favor for such a small thing. Eighty taels of silver is no longer a big amount for Jia Yun now.
In the afternoon, when Jia Yun returned to Erjin House in Xiaohuazhi Alley after buying the carriage, she found that Jia Lian had arrived and had been waiting for him at home for half an hour.
Jia Lian first greeted Jia Yun politely, and then got straight to the point: "Nephew Yun, this time the second master asked me to inform you of something important."
Jia Yun asked: "What's the matter?"
Jia Lian said: "The Prince of Beijing County sent people to the palace today and asked you to go to the palace tomorrow. There will be a banquet at the palace to celebrate your title."
Jia Lian added: "Although the Prince of Beijing and our family are family friends, it has not happened for many years that the Prince of Beijing specially holds a banquet to entertain me. The second master reminds you to be respectful and humble tomorrow."
After the matter was settled, Jia Lian left.
When the Qing Dynasty was founded, twelve heroes with different surnames were selected and granted four princes and eight princes. The four princes were Beijing County Prince, Nan'an County Prince, Dongping County Prince and Xining County Prince.
It is written in the original work that among the four kings, the one who made the greatest contribution at the beginning was the Prince of Beijing. In Shui Rong's generation, they all still held the title of Prince of Beijing. Moreover, the Ningrong Palace and the Prince of Beijing were close friends for generations, and the ancestors of the two palaces once suffered the same fate.
We share the same honor and don’t even look at each other with different surnames.
Jia Yun has learned more about the Prince's Palace in Beijing since traveling through time.
As far as he knew, the titles of heroes with different surnames in the Qing Dynasty were now divided into twenty-seven levels, which did not include royal titles.
Because the princes of the Four Kings are regarded as transcendent beings.
Even if the successors of Nan'an County Prince, Dongping County Prince, and Xining County Prince have no military merits or Jinshi, they can inherit the title for three generations. The title of Beijing County Prince can be inherited for four generations.
Jia Yun also confirmed that, as written in the original work, the Beijing Prince's Palace and the Ningrong Palace were family friends and their ancestors were very close.
Even so, Jia Yun still felt strange this time.
Jia Yun knew that since the death of Jia Daishan and Jia Daihua, although the Beijing Palace still maintained contact with the Ningrong Palace, the relationship was not as close as before.
Just as Jia Lian said, the prince of Beijing County specially held a banquet to entertain the people of Jia's family. This kind of thing has not happened for many years.
And this time, the prince of Beijing County specially held a banquet for Jia Yun to celebrate his knighthood and official appointment. It is indeed strange!
…
…
After Jia Lian left, Xiren and Zicuckoo started talking around the carriage they had just bought. They were both very happy. Firstly, they would have a "nanny car" in the future. Secondly, this "nanny car" was Jia Yun's.
I personally bought it for them to use with Bu Wuniang.
It stands to reason that under normal circumstances, Bu Wuniang would be happy about this, but Jia Yun found that Bu Wuniang was not happy about the carriage.
Jia Yun later discovered that Bu Wuniang had been restless from the afternoon to the evening of that day and had no appetite for dinner.
Jia Yun felt strange!
So that night, Jia Yun walked into Bu Wuniang's west bedroom and asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Why have you been so restless from this afternoon to now? Are you feeling unwell?"
Bu Wuniang was a little panicked when she heard this: "No... Mom is fine."
Jia Yun asked: "Are you worried about me going to see the Prince of Beijing? Don't worry, the Prince of Beijing and the Jia Palace are family friends. The Prince of Beijing summoned me this time to hold a banquet to celebrate my knighthood and official appointment."
Bu Wuniang nodded: "Mom, I understand."
…
…
On the morning of the next day, Jia Yun followed Jia She, Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen, and Jia Lian to the Prince's Mansion in Beijing.
Jia She and Jia Zhen were unwilling to do so, but they had no choice. Meeting the King of Beijing County was a big deal. As the heirs of Ning Rong's second house, the two of them, even if the King of Beijing County held a banquet to celebrate Jia Yun this time,
The two need to be together.
Jia Yun, Jia She, and Jia Zhen all put on their title uniforms, and Jia Zheng also put on his official uniform.
The Beijing Palace is also in the west city of Shenjing City, not far from the Ningrong Palace.
Although the Ningrong Palace is already very large and luxurious, the Beijing Palace is even bigger and more luxurious than the Ningrong Palace. It is magnificent, with halls and pavilions, and is majestic.
After Jia Yun and the other two arrived at the gate of the Prince's Mansion in Beijing, Jia pardoned and Jia Zheng submitted their official titles.
Soon, a eunuch holding a few beads in his hand came out of the palace and greeted Jia She and Jia Zheng with a smile: "How are you, gentlemen?"
Jia She and Jia Zheng both hurriedly said hello, and then asked Jia Zhen, Jia Lian and Jia Yun to come forward and say hello.
The eunuch said: "The prince has asked you to come in."
Jia Yun and the other five followed the eunuch into the palace, passed through the two doors, turned around the first floor of the palace, and arrived at the inner palace gate. Jia Yun and the other five stopped in front of the door. The eunuch went in to report, and after a while he came out and said "please".
Only five people in Yun entered the inner palace gate.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Wang Shuizhen of Beijing County stood under the porch of the palace to greet him, accompanied by his son Shuirong.
Shuizhen is the third generation Prince of Beijing County. He is currently wearing a silver-winged king's hat with a pure white hairpin, a white python robe with five claws and a sitting dragon in Jiangya Seawater, and a red jasper belt.
In the original work, Shuizhen, the king of Beijing County, did not appear, only Shui Rong appeared. The first time Shui Rong appeared was in the eleventh year of the Red Mansion. At that time, the Jia family sent a funeral to Qin Keqing, and Shui Rong held a road sacrifice. At that time, Shui Rong was still
He is still young, that is, he is less than twenty years old.
The current Shui Rong is still a teenager, with a handsome face, a jade-like face, and star-like eyes.
Jia She and Jia Zheng first came forward to greet Shuizhen and Shuirong.
When paying his respects, Jia Zheng said: "My son is happy, and Prince Lei Meng condescended to congratulate me. How can I bear this responsibility?"
Shuizhen smiled and said: "How can we say this because of the friendship we have for generations?"
Then came Jia Zhen, Jia Lian and Jia Yun to say hello.
Shuizhen looked at Jia Yun carefully and said with a smile: "I have heard that the Jia family has a brave young man like you. Today I can see it."
Jia Yun said solemnly: "How can I be so virtuous and capable as a junior? How dare I bring trouble to the prince's attention?"
After being polite to each other, several eunuchs opened the curtains. Shuizhen said "please" and then led Shui Rong into the palace first. Jia Yun and the other two bowed and followed.
After entering the palace, first Jia She knelt down to salute Shuizhen, and then it was Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, and Jia Yun's turn to kneel down and salute.
Shuizhen then said to Jia Yun: "It's rare that you are here today. It's not time for the banquet yet. You and I should have a good talk first and let my son communicate with you."
After saying this, Shuizhen asked the eunuchs to take Jia She, Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen and Jia Lian out, leaving only Jia Yun alone.
Jia She and Jia Zhen were both jealous. The prince of Beijing County treated Jia Yun too well, right? Not only did he hold a banquet specifically for Jia Yun this time, but he also warmly received Jia Yun in person. It seemed that he also wanted his son Shuirong to marry Jia Yun.
Make friends?
Both Jia She and Jia Zhen felt aggrieved by being compared to Jia Yun, and even Jia Lian was envious.
