Chapter 1704 Sister Feng: Her mother-in-law deliberately made her look embarrassed
…
Shenjing City
Before I knew it, half a month had passed.
The rumors about Jia Heng's life experience in Beijing have spread throughout the entire Shenjing City.
And not long after, the rumors from the Prime Minister's Affairs Office strongly supported the rumors on the streets of Beijing.
Jia Heng was not the son of the Jia family, but actually the son of Wei Lie, the crown prince of the East Palace of the Longzhi Dynasty.
Then, a fatal question emerged. Should King Wei return to his original name?
Daming Palace, Wuying Palace——
At this moment, all the cabinet ministers and military ministers of the Han Dynasty were also curious about what the young man in python suit would choose.
Jia Heng was sitting on a pearwood chair, looking up at the ministers of military aircraft and cabinet ministers on both sides below, tasting the tea in his hands expressionlessly.
"King Wei, rumors have appeared on the streets now that King Wei has a grudge against Emperor Sejong and plans to avenge his father." Shui Rong was silent for a moment and then asked.
As soon as he said these words, Qi Kun paused slightly with the palm holding the teacup on the side, lowered his eyes, and all kinds of suspicions surged in his heart.
Lin Ruhai put down the tea cup in his hand and raised his eyes to look at the young man in the python suit, also curious about what his son-in-law would choose next.
Jia Heng said: "In the name of the cabinet, the edicts at home and abroad say that King Wei is indeed the son of the chief of the East Palace Guards, but the old friends' grudges have long gone with the wind, and there is no need to discuss it at home or abroad."
Shui Rong heard this, his eyes were deep, his heart moved slightly, and he asked: "Has Ziyu decided to return to his original name?"
Jia Heng's face looked a little proud and he said: "A man is born between heaven and earth. He does not change his name when he is walking or sitting down. Since he is famous for his fame and honors his ancestors, how can he not recognize his ancestors and return to his clan?"
A look of approval appeared on Shuixu's face and he said, "What Zi Yu said is true."
Immediately, Jia Heng said: "Although the surname is returned to Su, the titles of Ning and Rong of the Jia clan should be returned to the original owners."
In fact, even if he forcibly relies on it, it won't be a big deal, but it will not be conducive to his efforts to unite and win over the Jia people.
Even if he returns to his original surname, some of his fellow Jia clan members are also direct descendants of him.
After Jia Heng said this, he turned to another matter and asked: "Lord Water, the military department has sent boats and ships to explore the sea. Is there any report yet?"
Shui Rong said: "Zi Yu, we just set out not long ago, and there is no news yet."
Ziyu has asked this question several times and seems to be quite concerned about this matter.
Jia Heng nodded and said: "Then we will handle it according to the regulations."
Jia Heng turned to look at Liu Zheng, the Minister of Rites, and asked: "How many Jinshi are there in the Ministry of Rites for this scientific examination?"
Liu Zheng was silent for a moment and said: "As I heard from King Wei, all the Jinshi have been selected to go to the Imperial Academy and the Imperial Academy."
After that, Jia Heng stayed in the palace for a while and left the palace.
In April of the fourth year of Qiande in the Han Dynasty, the spring was bright, the sky was clear, and the warm spring breeze blew on the faces of passers-by.
An edict from the cabinet brought the noise and controversy in Shenjing City to an abrupt end.
King Jiaheng of Wei officially resumed his birth name, ending more than half a month of speculation about his life experience.
As for the title ownership of the two houses of Ning and Rong, it has temporarily become a shelved issue for both parties.
Prince Yan's Mansion, Rear House——
The King of Yan, Chen Ze, sat beside a lacquered wooden table. The expression on his handsome face seemed to be a bit sinister. He looked at Zhao Yi, who was sitting next to him, with a cold look in his eyes and said: "King Wei has indeed restored his original surname."
Zhao Yidao: "Your Highness King Yan, King Wei no longer dwells on his grudges with Emperor Shizong, and acts like he is loyal to the country. This move is tantamount to buying people's hearts."
King Yan Chen Zejun said, under his sharp sword eyebrows, his eyes as clear as rainbows were somewhat sinister, "Why don't I know this? King Wei has always done these superficial things. When my father was here, he was so arrogant that he He was deceived by his treacherous appearance."
Zhao Yi asked: "My lord, what are your plans next?"
King Chen Zedao of Yan said: "For now, it is not advisable to do anything else. We can only wait and see what happens in the future. Is the Beijing camp interested in recruiting Han generals recently?"
Zhao Yi nodded and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the detectives from Jinyi Mansion seem to be keeping a closer eye on us recently."
King Yan Chen Ze frowned, feeling worried in his heart, and said: "We might as well stop for a moment. King Wei is very thoughtful, and he is afraid that he will doubt me. In the next period of time, Never do anything wrong with it."
Zhao Yi frowned and asked, "Your Majesty, how is Princess Xianning doing?"
King Yan Chen Zedao: "My sister is taking good care of me, but she can't help me deal with King Wei, so I don't have to count on it."
Hearing this, Zhao Yi nodded and said warmly: "Your Majesty, do you know where Concubine Rong is?"
King Yan Chen Zedao said: "The mother-in-law also doesn't have much help in the palace, so don't expect too much."
Zhao Yi's face was filled with worry, and he said with a worried tone: "Your Majesty, now the civil and military forces in the entire dynasty are basically people who are guarding the king. It is really not easy for us to make a difference."
Chen Ze, King of Yan, said coldly: "King Wei is now in a great position. However, there is no shortage of loyal ministers and righteous people both inside and outside the court. All we have to do is climb up and shout, and those who respond will surely gather."
King Yan Chen Zedao said: "To capture the thief, capture the king first. You have to make preparations first."
Since King Wei advocated the new learning, he should use the new learning to end King Wei's life.
The thunder and explosives were so powerful that they could kill the King of Guards if they were used.

Shenjing City, Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall——
Jia Mu sat down on an Arhat bed covered with a mattress. Her old, white face was filled with joy.
On the chairs on both sides of the bottom, there were Madam Xing and Madam Wang, as well as Sister Feng, Li Wan and others.
The two of them have long since left the pregnancy period, and the plumpness on their faces has disappeared a lot, while their behavior has become more motherly.
Not far away, Baoyu was sitting on a chair made of pear wood. Not far away was his wife, Xu. Xu was the daughter of Xu Hong, a lecturer at the Hanlin Academy, and she came from a scholarly family.
Jia Mu looked at Aunt Xue on the side and said, "Nowadays, there are widespread rumors that your eldest brother Heng has returned to his original surname, and the title of Rongguo Mansion should also fall on you."
Baoyu said: "Old lady, I have no interest in the title."
Although Baoyu declined, Baoyu's wife Xu, who was standing by the side, was brightened.
She does need some titles from the Rongguo Mansion.
And Sister Feng, who was sitting not far below, had a look of thoughtfulness on her beautiful and soft face.
According to the lineage, she was the eldest daughter of the Rongguo Mansion, so her and Wan's sister-in-law's children should inherit the title of the Western Mansion.
Mrs. Xing, who was on the other side of the room, also glanced at Mrs. Wang.
I'm afraid that her sister-in-law is thinking about the title of Xifu again.
Jia Mu nodded and whispered: "Yuanyang, send someone to Xifu to keep an eye on him. When Brother Heng comes back, ask him to come over."
Yuanyang, on the other hand, said softly "Hmm", and then sent a nun out of the hall to look for Jia Heng.
Jia Mu put down a teacup in her hand and said: "The title in the Ning Mansion depends on Brother Heng's opinion. No matter what, Brother Heng will always be the patriarch of the Jia clan."
Mrs.
I thought to myself, Brother Heng is the King of Wei, and he has the honor of a prince. Whether the Jia family can be rich and prosperous for a long time in the future is really inseparable from Brother Heng.
Speaking of which, Yuanchun, Yingchun and the others can successfully marry Brother Heng, so it won't cause gossip.
Jia Mu added: "Recently, there has been a lot of gossip inside and outside the house, but now it has calmed down."
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Wang's face looked a little unnatural.
Whether it was Li Wan or Sister Feng, both of them were pregnant with Jia Heng's child, not to mention the four girls of the Jia family. Yuan Ying Tanxi also followed Jia Heng, and Yuanchun even gave birth to a big fat boy for Jia Heng.
.
Aunt Xue smiled and changed the subject, whispering: "We'll see what we should do when Brother Heng comes back."
Mother Jia's face paused slightly, and she said "Hmm" softly, and said: "Yuanyang, let the kitchen prepare some meals, and ask Bao Yatou and Lin Yatou to call over."
Yuanyang said softly "Hmm", and immediately called a nun to go to the Grand View Garden.
Mother Jia turned to Aunt Xue and asked, "How is the situation over there in Wenlong?"
Aunt Xue smiled and said, "It's all good."
Jia Mu said: "Wenlong seems to be more stable than in previous years."
Does being in jail really have such a sharpening effect on a person’s temperament?
or……
Jia Mu couldn't help but glance at Baoyu and quickly put her mind back.
But Baoyu was in the presence of the old god, when suddenly his mind suddenly wandered.
Aunt Xue had a kind smile on her face and said: "What the old lady said is true, and I think so too. Now my daughter-in-law is pregnant again, and she is raising a fetus in the house."
Now let's not mention the power of the Jia family, but just say that Xue Pan had a brother-in-law who was the auxiliary king of the dynasty.
Mother Jia nodded, with deep eyes, and said warmly: "Wen Long is not young anymore, it would be good to have children."
Aunt Xue smiled and said in a low voice: "I just hope he can be a big fat boy, so that I can worry less in the future."
Jia Mu smiled and said, "There's no rush. You'll have something to worry about in the future."
Aunt Xue smiled, and felt an inexplicable joy in her heart.
On the other side, while Jia Mu and Aunt Xue were chatting, Jia Heng returned to the mansion from the palace after handling government affairs. When he entered the study, he looked at Chen Xiao who was sitting on the side of the table.
In the Ningguo Mansion, behind a square lacquered wooden table in the inner study, Jia Heng stared at Chen Xiao, who was sitting on a lacquered wooden chair, and asked: "Is there any new movement over there, King Yan?"
Chen Xiao was holding his son in his arms, sitting on a soft couch near the window, and said, "I have been in frequent contact with some generals and colonels in Beijing recently."
Jia Heng said: "Although King Yan is a little younger, he already has Emperor Shizong in his palace. Now he is hiding his minions in his dormitory, waiting for the opportunity. You and I have to guard against him."
It is now the fourth year of Qiande, ten years have passed since the fourteenth year of Chongping. He is now twenty-four years old, and he is young and promising.
At this moment, Qingwen moved her slim and graceful waist, walked quickly into the house, and whispered: "Your Majesty, the old lady of Xifu sent someone over, saying that she has something important to discuss."
This little maid who used to be by Jia Heng's side now looks graceful and graceful in her movements, and her brows and eyes seem to have a little more beautiful and moving charm.
There was just an air of resentment between his eyebrows.
In other words, Qingwen's stomach didn't move after such a long time. Seeing the good news coming out one after another in the backyard, Qingwen could not help but feel a little anxious deep in her heart.
Now among all the pink hairdressers in the backyard, every one of them wants Jia Heng's child to be with them.
Jia Heng smiled and walked closer. Under Chen Xiao's angry gaze, he gently pinched his child's soft and tender face and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. I'll go over first."
Chen Xiao nodded and said: "Go."
Immediately, he watched Jia Heng go away.
…
…
Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall——
In the hall, you can see the fragrance floating, the floating green and the flowing red, the pearls and the jade.
Jia Mu was already talking to Baochai and Daiyu.
Jia Mu smiled and asked, "Bao girl, why don't you see Zhuo'er?
Under Baochai's thick dark eyebrows, her clear and rainbow-like eyes were warm and she said, "Zhuo'er is letting the nanny nurse him at the moment."
On the other side, Jia's mother nodded slightly, then looked at her daughter Jia Ru in Daiyu's arms, smiled, and asked, "This girl's features and eyes really look like you and your mother."
To Jia Mu, Daiyu was Jia Mu's granddaughter, and Jia Ru was the great-granddaughter. Youdao was a close relative of another generation, and two generations apart, we had to kiss many more.
Under the smoky brows of Daiyu, her bright starry eyes smiled and said: "Old lady, others also say that Ru'er's eyebrows and eyes look like mine when I was a child."
At this moment, Baoyu turned his big, chubby face, turned his eyes, and stared at Daiyu lovingly.
Even after many years, Baoyu still misses Daiyu and does not change his original intention.
While Baochai was talking, she picked up the blue and white porcelain tea cup, took a sip, and looked at Baoyu who was sitting not far away. For some reason, she remembered that when she first came to Shenjing City, her family still wanted to
Let her marry Baoyu.
That was really the beginning of a lifelong nightmare.
At this moment, a nanny wearing silk and satin entered the hall and said: "Old lady, the prince is here."
Just as he was talking, he saw the young man in python clothes walking quickly from outside. Under the gaze of everyone, he walked closer and asked: "Old lady."
Jia Mu's old and fair face couldn't help but reveal a flourishing smile, and said warmly: "Brother Heng, you are here."
Jia Heng entered the hall, looked at Jia Mu, and asked: "The old lady summoned you, but you don't know why?"
With a look of expectation in her eyes, Mother Jia said, "I just heard from outside that you have returned to your original surname."
Jia Heng said loudly: "This matter has happened. I have announced it to everyone and restored my original surname to set the record straight."
He can now be considered as announcing it to the public.
Jia Mu said: "Brother Heng, didn't you say before..."
Jia Heng sat down, with a slightly strange look on his face, and said, "How should I describe the title of Rongguo Mansion?"
At this point, Mrs. Wang, who was not far away, had already pricked up her ears and seemed to be listening attentively.
It can be said that Mrs. Wang has been waiting for this day for a long time.
Even though Jia Zheng has now been promoted to the rank of Minister of the Sixth Ministry, Mrs. Wang has never had too many benefits.
At this moment, Mrs. Xing said: "In the Rongguo Mansion, as a rule, the eldest son should inherit."
Jia Mu frowned, glanced at Mrs. Xing, and said warmly: "What do you mean?"
Mrs. Xing said: "Isn't Brother Lian's daughter-in-law still here? He has a pair of twins."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the entire Rongqing Hall suddenly became weird.
Who in the whole family doesn't know that the twins under Sister Feng's knees are Uncle Heng's father?
Sister Feng's gorgeous and unprovoked face turned red. Danfeng's eyes were filled with anger, and she clenched the handkerchief a little tighter.
Her mother-in-law deliberately made her look embarrassed.
Jia Muqing scolded and said, "Nonsense!"
Jia Heng's face was indifferent, he reached out to pick up the tea cup beside him and took a sip.
Now that he is in his current position, he no longer has any feeling for these things.
Jia Mu was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Jia Heng and asked, "Brother Heng, what do you think?"
Jia Heng said: "Here at the eldest house, Jia Cong has been promoted to a thousand households in the capital camp. He will inherit the title of Ning Guofu. Our Jia clan can add another young man with military honors to help the clan."
When Jia Mu heard this, her expression changed.
Mother Jia really couldn't figure out who Brother Cong was, but she vaguely remembered someone.
Mrs. Wang's expression changed, and she couldn't help but exert a little force on the Buddhist bead bracelet she was holding in her hand.
How could this Brother Heng do this?
Baoyu is his brother-in-law?
And her two daughters were given to Brother Heng.
Mrs. Xing took over the conversation and said with a smile: "Old lady, Brother Heng is right. Brother Cong should inherit the title of Xifu."
If Jia Cong takes over the title of Ning Guofu, then she will be the legitimate mother and have legal advantages.
Jia Heng said: "I know that the old lady loves Baoyu, but Baoyu's future is not in the title, but in Shilin. In our dynasty, military merit is the first step to enter. It is only natural for Brother Cong to inherit the title."
He can also accept a loyal confidant, but what does it mean to give the title to Baoyu? Keep another rich and idle person in the house?
Jia Mu really fell silent at this moment.
Mrs. Xing's fair face showed an eager smile, and she said: "It is only right to let Brother Cong inherit the title."
Mrs. Wang stood aside and was so angry that she secretly gritted her teeth.
Why is it the turn of Dafang's concubine to inherit the title? Is there something worse?
Jia Mu asked: "Brother Heng, what about the title of Dongfu?"
Jia Heng looked noncommittal and said: "Let's take a look at the title of Dongfu for the time being. However, Dongfu has lost its heirs. I want to choose one of my descendants to inherit it, but I will live up to my fate with the Jia family.
."
After hearing this, Jia Mu was silent for a while.
As the political supporter of the Jia family, Jia Heng's ties with the Jia family are getting closer and closer, which means that the power of the Jia family is getting stronger.
On the other side of the room, Jia Mu suddenly paused and said, "Brother Heng, you are right."
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and said, "Let's leave it like this for now."
As he said that, he seemed to think of something, and turned his eyes to look at the old god. He cast a pair of foolish eyes on Baoyu who was standing on Daiyu, and said: "Baoyu, have you taken the imperial examination recently?"
Last time, during the Enke exam, Baoyu did not pass the Jinshi exam, and is still a supervisor of the Imperial College. Of course, Baoyu has not taken the provincial examination, so he took the shortcut of Enyin's supervisor.
Baoyu was lost in thought, and his wife Xu, who was beside him, gently tugged on her and said, "Husband, Brother Heng is asking you."
Baoyu seemed to be waking up from a dream. He looked at Jia Heng and said quickly: "I am going to take a year off to sort out my knowledge before starting the next subject."
Jia Heng nodded, his voice a little clearer, and said: "Baoyu, as long as you win the Jinshi, you can become an official in the scarlet robe in the future."
Baoyu heard this but had no reaction and looked dull.
Mrs. Xu, who was sitting next to her, had a much more enthusiastic smile on her fair and flawless face, and she quickly tugged on Baoyu's sleeve.
Baoyu raised his eyes and looked at Jia Heng at this moment, with a hint of thoughtfulness in his eyes.
At this moment, Yuanyang entered the hall, with a smile on his face with a few small freckles, and said: "Old lady, the meals in the kitchen have been prepared."
Jia Mu smiled and said, "Brother Heng, let's not talk about that for now. Let's have dinner first."
