The spoiled wife was so coquettish that Jia Lian moved his index finger.
Since he was in his own room again, Jia Lian was not polite and directly pressed him on the couch to quell his morning anger.
"Stop making trouble. Aren't you going to visit your second uncle today? If you're late, be careful and make fun of me."
After a while, Wang Xifeng pushed Jia Lian panting.
Her husband's love for her body made her both proud and occasionally uncomfortable.
Jia Lian didn't go too far. After a few simple rubs, he stood up and asked with a smile: "How about you come with me?"
"Forget it for now. My second uncle has just returned to Beijing. It's better to wait for two days. Maybe aunt will send someone to invite you. Then we can go there together. It won't seem rude."
Wang Xifeng was shrewd in dealing with people. Jia Lian could visit Wang Ziteng as soon as he returned to Beijing, because they were both in the officialdom and could pass news to each other and help each other.
But as a family member, she couldn't rush there. She still wanted to wait two days and take her little eldest sister with her to visit Wang Ziteng.
Besides her husband Jia Lian, her uncle Wang Ziteng is her biggest supporter.
Take this incident as an example. Jia Mu and others had nothing to do with Jia Lian, so why not follow the example of the Queen Mother and force her to leave voluntarily?
On the one hand, Jia's mother may indeed have some old feelings, and on the other hand, it is also because of the existence of her uncle Wang Ziteng. Even the Jia family cannot offend the Wang family.
Therefore, she can stay safe and sound until the clouds clear and the moon shines.
Naturally, she has to maintain a good relationship with her uncle and aunt.
…
Because of Wang Ziteng's relationship, the threshold for the Wang family is getting higher and higher.
However, coming as Jia Lian, he did not receive any slights. Even though the Wang family seemed a little busy, the palace steward still welcomed Jia Lian to the vestibule, and then smiled at Jia Lian and said: "Second Master Lian, wait a moment, my master is in the hall.
When we meet guests, please let me go and report first."
"Trouble."
After a while, the housekeeper came out and reported: "Master, please invite me."
When he came to the main hall and saw that the room was full of vermilion, Jia Lian knew that Wang Ziteng intended to support him as a junior. Otherwise, he could have finished the reception and then summoned his niece-in-law alone.
"Jia Lian pays homage to his uncle and welcomes him back to Beijing in triumph."
After not seeing each other for half a year, the prince's energy remained the same, but his face felt a little more weathered.
When he saw Jia Lian, the smile on his face became three points thicker, and he asked with a smile: "You are here just in time. Most of the people present are my former generals. Some of them you may not know yet. Let me introduce them to you."
In the future, when you both serve as officials in the capital, you can support and take care of each other."
Hearing this, Jia Lian felt grateful in his heart.
Wang Ziteng served as the military governor of the Beijing camp for more than ten years. It can be said that in terms of military power alone, no one in the capital can compare with him.
Not even a few senior generals of the Forbidden Army could do it.
Therefore, Wang Ziteng naturally has many old subordinates. No, he just returned to Beijing, and these people came to pay homage to his former boss.
And what Wang Ziteng said just now was to tell these people that this is a junior in my family, and for my sake, take more care of him in the future.
Sure enough, seeing Wang Ziteng's attitude, those present who had been secretly sizing up Jia Lian, a descendant of the Jia family who had recently gained a "pretty good reputation", felt a hint of amusement in their hearts.
At this moment, he couldn't help but quietly change his attitude, and looked at Jia Lian with much enthusiasm.
And Jia Lian also followed Wang Ziteng's words and met these people one by one.
It was only then that Jia Lian felt from Wang Ziteng's actions that the clan and marriage relationships practiced by people at that time were still very reasonable.
The four major families have been linked together for hundreds of years. When the Jia family is the strongest, there are no descendants, so the political legacy is inherited by the capable prince Teng.
Now that the prince has ascended to the throne and is a highly respected minister, seeing the emergence of capable children in the Jia family, he will support him in turn.
It is conceivable that if this inheritance continues, when he grows up in the future, he can also support the younger generations of the Wang family. It can be said that they are closely linked and can ensure the long-term prosperity of the family to the greatest extent.
No wonder the four major families can still occupy a place in the center of power after being passed down for hundreds of years.
However, this method of inheritance also has a drawback, that is, you must be accurate in judging people.
If you fall in love with an ungrateful white-eyed wolf like Jia Yucun, then no matter how many generations of people have worked hard to maintain the relationship, it will end here.
Since most of the people present were military attachés, after the greetings, we sat down to discuss the situation at the border and the new orders from the Ministry of War.
That's about it, so it's gone.
As a junior, Jia Lian still wants to stay and talk about some private matters.
Therefore, after sending the others away, Wang Ziteng led Jia Lian to his study. After sitting down, his first words were: "I have also heard about the things about your family.
You have done well. How can a man, a real man, abandon his wife to seek a future and wealth?
Moreover, although the prince-in-law of this dynasty can enter the dynasty and become an official, there are still restrictions after all. If it is someone else, that's it. As the direct grandson of Duke Rong, you have a bright future, so how can you covet this shortcut?"
"That's what my uncle taught me, but my nephew didn't think about it that much before. I just felt that Feng Yatou had been married to me for many years and she had not failed me. Naturally, I can't do anything treacherous."
Of course Jia Lian knew that, and Wang Ziteng must have known more than just his resistance to marriage.
It's just that the matter in Ning Guo Mansion is not pleasant to talk about, so Wang Ziteng deliberately didn't mention it.
Hearing Jia Lian's answer, Wang Ziteng showed even more appreciation on his face.
How can people not like such a junior who attaches great importance to affection and trust? Even from the perspective of interests, cultivating and supporting such people will be more motivational.
In the future, a hundred years from now, if I keep my love in mind, the other party will do more to take care of the Wang family.
So he smiled and said: "Did you see those people just now? Although I dare not say that they are all talented people, they are also the connections I have accumulated in Beijing over the years.
I think His Majesty will probably not let me interfere in the affairs of the capital camp anymore. Therefore, if you can make friends with these people, try your best to make friends with them. This will be good for you in the future.
Besides, since you are the Second Duke of Ning Rong, most people in the capital camp will give you a favor, so as long as you are willing, it is not difficult to make friends with them."
"Thank you uncle for the tip. My nephew will remember it."
Although the Jingying headquarters does not have too many troops, both the five-city military and horse divisions in the city and several large camps near the capital are all under the jurisdiction of the Jingying camp.
And just before Wang Ziteng took office as the governor of Beijing Camp, it was Jia Daihua, the son of Ning Guogong.
Moreover, Jia Daihua, during his tenure in Jingying, did not retire until he could no longer work.
As for going forward... It is said that most of the Beijing camps were formed by the old troops of the Second Duke Ningrong.
Therefore, Jingying has a strong Jia family brand.
Perhaps this was Wang Ziteng's intention. Since the emperor would not allow him to intervene in the capital camp, he would transfer this power back to Jia Lian.
In this regard, Jia Lian felt that it would not be so easy.
After so many generations of changes, even the character Wang is more useful than the character Jia in the capital camp.
The greater strength of the Jia family is the few old guys who have been promoted to the Ministry of War. Although they usually don't take care of things, they can speak loudly at critical moments.
Those people were actually subordinates of Duke Ning Rong, so they naturally missed the old friendship more than others.
"There is one more thing I want to tell you. Do you know the main reason why I returned to Beijing this time?" Wang Ziteng's expression suddenly became serious.
Jia Lian did not dare to neglect and acted as if he was listening seriously.
"This border battle is mainly a war between us and the Tatars.
Although it was said to be a war, in fact, neither we nor the Tatars sent many troops. Strictly speaking, it was just a large-scale friction.
Because His Majesty advocated taking the initiative to attack, we gained a good advantage and the invading Tatar tribes retreated to the north.
But the Tatars are still determined to invade our territory!
Over the years, the Tatar tribes have gradually unified and become stronger. They no longer have any enemies on the grasslands, so they gradually have the intention of attacking us.
Although this battle forced them to negotiate peace with us, I have received reliable information that the Tatars are uniting with the Oara and Xihai tribes to prepare to join forces to invade our western frontier.
This matter is of great importance, so His Majesty has just invited me back to Beijing so that we can discuss the countermeasures together after studying the situation in detail."
When Jia Lian heard these words, his first reaction was that there was another battle to fight!
Then he realized, when did he become like a militant warrior? He is a good young man who loves peace and life!
After thinking about it, I realized that there were no militants, but they all wanted to gain military glory through war so as to quickly improve their strength and status.
Quickly correcting his attitude, Jia Lian asked: "But I heard about you before. Wala sent envoys to make good relations with our court. I heard that you are still a prince.
If Wala also has the intention to offend me, how dare they send the prince to die?"
Wang Ziteng looked at Jia Lian and asked, "How can you be sure that they are here to make peace with me and surrender, and not to find out what I am saying?"
Jia Lian understood.
Indeed, although this Wala is much more honest than the Tatars, don't forget that it is also the largest royal court of the Mongolian tribe besides the Tatars.
When it was strong, it also pressed the Tatars of Eastern Mongolia to the ground and rubbed them.
Although the current strength is weaker than that of the Tatars, they may not be willing to surrender.
In fact, its surrender to the Wei Dynasty was just to use the strength of the Wei Dynasty to contain the Tatars to prevent itself from being annexed by the Tatars.
If there is an opportunity to strengthen itself, it will not let it go.
Seeing Jia Lian deep in thought, Wang Ziteng smiled and said, "But don't worry too much.
Rumor has it that King Navarre is old and has no ambition to make progress. He has been paying tribute to our dynasty these years. In addition, if he dares to unite the Tatars and the Xihai factions, isn't he worried that the Tatars will invade after this is accomplished?
Today's Oara can't stop the Tatar cavalry. If they hadn't been afraid of our Wei Dynasty in recent years, the Tatars would have invaded Oara a long time ago.
Since the separation of East and West Mongolia, there has been no generation of Tatar and Oara kings who did not want to unify the prairie.
Therefore, the imperial court was still very confident in winning over King Wala.
And Oara is in the northwest of our direction, separating the Tatars from the Western Sea tribes. As long as the king of Oara does not dare to rebel, the alliance planned by the Tatars will be impossible to talk about."
Wang Ziteng looked confident.
This battle with the Tatars gave him new insights into dealing with the prairie cavalry. He believed that if he was asked to lead the troops next time, he would do better than this time.
In response, Jia Lian smiled and agreed with Wang Ziteng, but did not express too many opinions.
He is only a fourth-grade man now, and he has been fucked. There is very little room for him to speak on such a major military matter.
What he needs to do is to be prepared at all times, but if there is a chance, just like last time, he can win more military honors while ensuring safety as much as possible.
Wang Ziteng only reminded Jia Lian, but he didn't really ask him what he thought.
After saying this, he smiled and said: "It will be noon soon, let's stay and have lunch before going back.
I heard your aunt say last night that Feng Yatou gave birth to a baby girl last year, why didn't you bring her over to show me?"
Hearing this, Jia Lian smiled and said: "Girl Feng originally planned to hold the child and kowtow to her uncle early in the morning, but she suddenly remembered that her uncle had returned to Beijing remotely and had not rested yet.
The child was noisy again, which might upset the uncle, so she and I agreed to wait for my uncle to have a good rest for two days, and then she and I would hold the child together and come to see him. This is the etiquette of the younger generations."
Wang Ziteng smiled and shook his head, saying nothing more.
…
After coming out of the palace, Jia Lian went to Linzi's uncle's house to see the old man.
The old man is old-hearted and cares most about family and country affairs. Telling him the news that Wang Zi Tengchu got will make him happy.
Returned to Ningrong Street and dismounted in front of the main entrance of Ningguo Mansion.
"Second Master Lian."
"Um."
Naturally, Ningguo Mansion was still in a bleak state.
After the Ministry of Punishment concluded the case, the Jia family took Jia Rong's body back and placed it with Jia Zhen in the mourning hall.
Of course, considering that Jia Rong was an unfilial son, although the family did not hold him accountable, they had no intention of arranging it for him. They just wanted him to take advantage of his father.
All memorial ceremonies are directed towards Jia Zhen.
Jia Jing is really a slut!
It is said that Jia Zheng is lazy and does not like to take care of things, but Jia Jing is much better than him.
He ignored the funeral of his son and grandson, and together with a group of Taoist priests, hid in the house every day, burning elixirs and chanting sutras. The tired Jia Zheng was busy busy helping him take care of things outside!
What is this called? The big laziness calls on the little laziness, and the little laziness calls on the threshold!
Jia Lian sadly discovered that he might have been that threshold in the past.
Jia Zheng doesn't know how to take care of things. He has free labor at his disposal, so he is unwilling to move.
"Second Master..."
"Second uncle..."
Came to the mourning hall and bowed three times to Jia Zhen.
A group of weeping ladies naturally met him face to face.
Jia Lian didn't care much at first.
Suddenly, two delicate voices sounded out, one behind the other, with an inexplicable sense of shyness.
"Second brother Lian~"
Jia Lian looked around and saw two delicate and delicate figures beside You.
The older one looks to be about fourteen or fifteen years old, with smooth muscles and bones, fair and sweet skin, and a temperament that looks somewhat similar to that of Yingchun.
The younger one is about the age of a nutmeg, with a small face like a melon seed, a peach-blossom face, and two eyes that are constantly rolling around. At first glance, she is a clever ghost girl.
Everyone nearby saw Jia Lian sizing up the two girls and couldn't help but smile inwardly.
Sister-in-law You, these two girls are really pretty, and even Mr. Lian, who is now very eye-catching, can't help but look at them more.
Youshi hurriedly introduced: "Second uncle, these are my two sisters. Things are very busy at home now, and my wife and I can't take care of them, so I called my mother and sister over to help."
Jia Lian nodded to express his understanding, then bent down and held his hands in his hands, saying to the two young ladies: "You two sisters, you are polite."
Perhaps he was moved by Jia Lian's extraordinary demeanor. The older one bowed his head shyly and did not dare to look directly at Jia Lian. The younger one glanced at Jia Lian for a few times until he heard the eldest sister talking to Jia Lian about other things.
