As for ethnology, he won't spend too much energy on reforming it at this time.
He didn't think that he could challenge feudal ethics at this time.
It is true that the Jia clan's clan studies are poor, but in name it is a place where the Jia clan cultivates reserve talents, and it is a very important part of the clan.
As the heir to the Ning Mansion, if he behaves randomly at a young age, it will easily lead to a group attack.
Not only is there possible dissatisfaction within the clan, but the moral defenders outside will never allow him, a playboy, to meddle in clan affairs at a young age.
Of course, by dividing the classes and inviting old scholars from outside to teach, and with him personally taking charge, the discipline of the family studies has improved a lot, and it is possible to achieve results.
However, it will take time to see results.
Jia Rong had already prepared question-answer tactics and monthly exam ranking lists for ethnic studies students, so that they could have a good drink when needed.
As time goes by, the income brought to him by the ethnology students' copying of books is also slowly increasing.
After all, by copying and writing all day long, his calligraphy level and copying speed will gradually improve, which can take his income to a higher level.
Of course, the consumption of pens, inks, paper and inkstones in Ethnology has suddenly increased a lot.
But neither Jia Zhen, the cheap man, nor Mr. Zheng and Mr. Pardon from the West Mansion raised any questions.
As long as they know that these consumptions are for normal purposes, they will not care.
With an income of more than fifty taels of silver every month, Jia Rong was quite wealthy.
Except for some simple herbs that need to be purchased by himself, the rest of the consumption is paid for by the Ning Mansion, and he does not need some huge expenses at this time.
Without going out to fool around, it was easy to accumulate a huge sum of almost three hundred taels of silver.
Sure enough, as long as you are good at discovering business opportunities, there are opportunities to make money everywhere.
Not to mention the changes in ethnic studies, Jia Rong got up early to wash her cough.
When I sent someone over to greet him, I had just finished breakfast served in the big kitchen.
Shi Shiran finished the last bit of breakfast, and then he went directly to Ning'an Hall.
Mrs. Zhao asked him if he had eaten before. After getting a satisfactory answer, she didn't hesitate and drove directly to the nearby Rongfu.
He didn't go through the main entrance or Ningrong Street, but went through the small corner gate on the side of Huifang Garden. Naturally, he didn't want to attract attention.
After all, Jia Yuanchun's entry into the palace is definitely a major event that Ning Rong and his two families are extremely concerned about recently, and involves the interests of the whole family.
Along the way, there were maids from the Rong Mansion to entertain them. Obviously, the Rong Mansion was well prepared.
When they arrived at Rongqing Hall, some of the servants who had seen Jia Mu were fine, but they felt guilty and short of breath after seeing her for the first time.
The place in Rongqing Hall is magnificent and magnificent.
The main reason is that there are too many maids around Jia Mu.
Just sitting there gives you an extremely noble feeling.
The accompanying servants were asked to wait outside. The only ones who entered were Mrs. Zhao and Jia Zhen, and Jia Rong who followed at the end.
Here in Rongqing Hall, Jia Mu is sitting at the top, Mr. Zheng and Mrs. Wang are sitting on the left, and Mr. Pardon and Mrs. Xing are sitting on the right.
Rarely, Jia Rong actually saw Jia Zhu, but not Jia Lian.
It can be said that these people in Rongqing Hall are the real core of the two mansions.
Of course, I wonder if the gentleman on the beam above his head is an unintentional presence or a spy from the royal family?
Jia Rong's cultivation at this time has only returned to the level of dark strength, but it is impossible for the gentleman Liang Shang not far away to hide from his perception.
As juniors, Jia Rong and Jia Zhen are always present to greet their elders.
When it was Mr. Pardon's turn, the bright red luck in the sky above his head made him feel a little surprised.
I glanced again and saw that Mr. Zheng was sitting opposite. The light red luck in the sky above his head could explain something.
Obviously, the power structure here in Rong Mansion is not as simple as it seems.
"Okay, no more nonsense!"
When all the three people in the Ning Mansion were seated, Jia Mu went straight to the point: "We must make a decision as soon as possible about the Yuanchun matter!"
In fact, according to her original intention, Jia Mu did not have much intention to send Jia Yuanchun to the palace.
How could she, the old lady of the Rong Mansion, not know what was going on in the palace?
Jia Yuanchun was obviously trained according to the model of a legitimate wife of aristocratic family, and if he suddenly entered the palace to fight through the model of selecting female officials, it would be easy for him to suffer big losses.
Apart from anything else, her dignified and majestic posture could easily arouse the resentment of the nobles in the palace.
Marrying a well-matched young man, like Jia Min, is a pretty good choice for the current Rong Mansion.
I don't know what her specific thoughts were, but she had a very strong desire to send Jia Yuanchun to the palace to fight.
Originally, Jia Mu had the ability to stop it.
Unfortunately, Mrs. Wang carried her brother Wang Ziteng out.
Jia Mu was angry and had some concerns, so she did not object again.
As for the contact with the Zhen family, it was all handled by Mrs. Wang.
If Jia Mu takes action, she will definitely not go through the channel of Concubine Zhengui. Wouldn't she be making trouble for herself?
Concubine Zhengui is the favorite of the Supreme Emperor, but the Emperor still has his biological mother alive.
Why not go directly to the emperor's biological mother, the empress dowager, who has little presence in the palace?
By the time Jia Mu heard the news, the matter had been settled.
She was angry and angry. She didn't expect Mrs. Wang to be so incompetent that she would trick her own daughter-in-law into the palace.
At the same time, Rong Mansion also lacks a trump card for marriage!
Jia Mu had no choice but to put an end to Mrs. Wang's slutty tricks.
She is also very powerful. She directly started a fight between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Rong family, but ended up causing an own incident, which turned into a major incident for the Jia family in the capital.
Even though I know I can't get anything good, I still want to try my best.
Her intention was quite clear, that is, she wanted to unite the power of Ning Rong's second house and directly push Jia Yuanchun to the throne.
Of course, it is quite difficult to do this.
As mentioned before, today is not a good time. If you want to become one of the concubines in the harem through abnormal means, the price you need to pay is no joke.
Without enough benefits, why should we give Jia Yuanchun face now?
Obviously, Jia Mu's purpose is quite simple, she just wants Ning Mansion to charge forward.
If something unexpected happens, Ning Mansion will take the blame.
Of course, the words were not said so straightforwardly, nor could they be said openly.
As for how the three people in the Ning Mansion understood it, it was obvious that Jia Mu didn't care very much.
Who said she was of higher rank and had the most respected status?
The Duke's wife's card must be given some dignity even today...
In the Rongqing Hall of Rongfu, as Jia Mu spoke, the atmosphere suddenly became very solemn.
Jia Yuanchun entered the palace through abnormal means, which was indeed a big event for the Jia family in the capital.
After all, as the legitimate daughter of the head of the Rong Mansion, and with the reputation of being the eldest lady of the Duke's Mansion, entering the palace is no joke.
She was directly aiming for the position of at least the four concubines, even the imperial concubine and the queen, otherwise it would not be in line with Jia Yuanchun's background.
However, if you really want to do this, you need to take great risks.
If one thing goes wrong, the Jia family in Beijing will be directly punished!
In addition, both paintings had to use their connections in the palace.
Once exposed, these relationships cannot be used again in the future.
These are the core secrets of the two mansions.
There is no need to pay attention to what Rong Mansion is thinking. Is it necessary for Ning Rong to spend so much money?
At this time, it showed the benefit of Mrs. Zhao still being alive.
If it were Jia Zhen, she probably wouldn't be able to withstand Jia Mu's pressure and agree directly.
But Mrs. Zhao was different. Her sister Hui pointed out the key points and hoped that Jia Mu could give an accurate answer. Otherwise, it would be difficult for the Ning Mansion to use its full strength.
How could Mother Jia give the right answer?
If Jia Yuanchun's plan to enter the palace through abnormal means and become a woman today fails, then Jia's mother will have to bear the consequences.
She is an old feudal prince with a high status. Unless she commits a serious crime of rebellion, even the emperor will have to give her some face.
How is it possible to set a trap for yourself?
When she saw Jia Mu's attitude, Mrs. Zhao's expression changed.
Her body recovered to normal, but she had adverse reactions immediately after feeling unhappy. After a violent cough, she waved her hands with a white face and said with a bitter smile: "I'm sorry, I can't sit still anymore. All I can say is
Sorry!"
After saying that, with Jia Rong's support, he and Jia Zhen loosened the old lady's carriage, and then Shi Shiran returned to Ning Mansion.
It can be said that this discussion did not achieve any results.
However, there are some things that are simply impossible to escape from.
In the end, Mrs. Zhao was so troubled that she just took out 50,000 taels of silver, and with the help of the internal minister Dai Quan, she finally 'spended money to eliminate the disaster'.
Jia Rong saw all this but did not express any opinion.
On the other hand, from the Rong Mansion, relevant information is coming in a steady stream.
I don’t know how the Rong Mansion operates. On a warm and sunny morning, Jia Yuanchun quietly entered the palace in a small green cloth sedan.
The Rong Mansion didn't make any noise, and the Ning Mansion naturally wouldn't be too troublesome.
However, Mrs. Zhao was obviously very dissatisfied with this matter. She found an opportunity to call Jia Zhen and Jia Rong to her residence and asked them to analyze the details.
In the main hall of the old lady's courtyard, half-year-old Xichun was lying quietly on her crib, while her grandmother sat beside her with a loving look on her face and took care of her.
There was not a single maid in the room, and the atmosphere seemed a bit solemn.
Jia Zhen opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but nothing came out.
In fact, his thoughts have been made very clear, and he fully agrees with the Rong Mansion's idea of sending Jia Yuanchun to the palace to fight.
It’s not that Jia Yuanchun is so tall that he will surely succeed.
Instead, he believed that at this time, Wang Ziteng was already considered one of the big bosses in the Beijing camp, and he was now a trusted general. As long as he was willing to contribute, he would always give him some face.
He is quite well informed. It is said that Wang Ziteng took over the post of Jiedushi in the past year or two.
If we support Jia Yuanchun and establish a good relationship with Wang Ziteng, it will naturally be beneficial to the Ning Mansion without any harm.
It cannot be said that there is anything wrong with his consideration.
Wang Ziteng's momentum is no joke.
If this guy can become the governor of the Beijing Camp, that would be really great.
You must know that the position of Jingying Jiedushi was in the hands of the heads of the Ningrong and Rongfus in the past.
First, the first Duke Ning Guo took the post, and then the first Duke Rong Guo took the post.
After that, it passed to the second head of the Ning Mansion, and then the previous generation of Rongguo Gonggu Daishan took over.
Unfortunately, at this time, the Ningrong and Rong mansions wanted to transform. At the same time, there were no successors in the army, and the two mansions also went from prosperity to decline.
Later, during the Prince Abolition Incident, Jia Daishan, the Duke of Rongguo, was seriously injured and died soon after.
The head of Ning Mansion in the previous generation passed away even earlier.
From then on, the Ningrong and Rongfus were completely insulated from the position of Jingying Jiedushi.
But it does not mean that the core members of Ningrong and Rongfu are not aware of the importance of the Jingying Jiedushi.
If you are not a confidant of the emperor, there is no way you can get involved in this position.
Obviously, if Wang Ziteng succeeds in becoming the governor of the Beijing Camp, he will definitely be a popular person in the emperor's heart.
Being able to have a good relationship with the famous people around the emperor is definitely a good thing that the noble family dreams of.
When he discussed these with Mrs. Zhao at the house, he was very verbose.
Now, of course, there is no need to repeat it again.
"Brother Rong, what do you think?"
Obviously, what Mrs. Zhao wants to know is what Jia Rong is thinking.
As for Jia Zhen, you can tell what her attitude is by looking at her solemn and unhappy expression.
"I feel that if cousin Yuanchun enters the palace at this time, no matter whether she can achieve her goal or not, it will not be of great help to our house or even the entire Jia family!"
Jia Rong was not polite and directly said something shocking.
Ahem, there is no gentleman outside this time, otherwise he would not have said such a thing.
"Little beast, what are you talking about?"
Jia Zhen's face changed slightly, she shouted angrily and wanted to take action.
Wow……
Xiao Xichun, who was sleeping soundly, was startled awake by Jia Zhen's loud shouting. She burst into tears and looked like she would not be able to stop for a while.
"shut up!"
Mrs. Zhao was so angry that her face turned blue. While she was coaxing to comfort the frightened little Xichun, she was angrily glaring at Jia Zhen, her unreliable son.
Jia Zhen looked embarrassed at this time and didn't know what to do.
For Jia Zhen, Jia Rong didn't even bother to roll his eyes.
Damn, this temper is a bit too arrogant. I can't bear to hear any unpleasant words, especially from the mouth of a junior.
Huh, just Chongya can no longer maintain the state of pure luck, and it won't take long for her to be unlucky and make herself miserable.
Otherwise, Jia Rong wouldn't mind taking action personally to let him know why the flowers are so red?
After finally calming down Xiao Xichun, who was frightened and crying loudly, he then talked about some truth at the instruction of Mrs. Zhao,
"There is no need for our government to do things that are of little benefit!"
"Even if cousin Yuanchun successfully becomes a concubine, what good will come to our house..."
