Jia Zheng had always disliked his eldest son-in-law and despised him for not having any official position. He never thought that his eldest son-in-law was not from a lowly background. If Prince Yi Zhong was not bad, the Zhan family would be very powerful. What's more, now he has obtained such a high official position. He immediately
Seeing that he was becoming more pleasing to the eye, he stroked his beard and said, "My dear son-in-law, please get up quickly." Jia Huan secretly rolled his eyes.
Jia Cong smiled and said, "The eldest brother-in-law is chatting with your father-in-law and brother-in-law, and I will have a chat with brother Huan." Then he gave Zhan Kun a look that said, "It's up to you to settle this old man." Then he and Jia Huan left.
After leaving the Hall of Rongxi, the two went straight to Jia Huan's yard. Ever since Jia Cong became the regent, Princess Jian'an had been uneasy and full of emotions. Jia Huan had just comforted her a few times, but she only said that she understood everything, no matter what.
If you are willing to listen again. Jia Huan thought that the person who tied the bell must untie it. Since it was Jia Cong who rebelled, he could only let the instigator come forward to explain before he could use other tricks.
Princess Jian'an was coaxing the child to sleep under the shade of the osmanthus tree in the courtyard. When she looked up and saw the two brothers coming, she wanted to hand the child over to the wet nurse. Jia Cong hurriedly said: "Third sister-in-law, don't worry about me. The child is the most important thing. I'll go to the study."
Sit down." Princess Jian'an looked at him deeply, lowered her head and continued to comfort the child.
Jia Huan followed Jia Cong for a few steps. Jia Cong winked at him and bit his ear and said, "Why are you following me? Go with the third sister-in-law to coax the child."
Jia Huan whispered: "I can't do it, I always make him cry."
"Then you watch from the side." Jia Cong winked again, "Anyway, don't let people think that taking care of the child is her job alone. You have nothing important to do at the moment."
Jia Huan glanced at him: "Where did you get these thoughts?"
"You don't care where I came from." I can't tell you that I heard my ex-girlfriend complain about it three hundred years later. "You heard me right." Jia Huan then returned to Princess Jian'an and stayed with her to comfort the child.
.Princess Jian'an raised her eyes and looked at Jia Cong's back.
After a while, the child fell asleep, and Jia Huan and his wife walked into the study. Jia Cong just took a book and opened a few pages in his hands, wondering: "So fast? You little brats are so coaxed. My girl
We will never stop until we make a fuss and destroy half the house."
Princess Jian'an smiled at the corner of her mouth, but her face did not move anywhere else. She sat directly in front of him and said, "The third child came to see me and Jia Huan specifically. Feng Ziying has nothing to do with our house."
Jia Cong shrugged: "Do you believe it?"
"Speak sincerely."
"Do you dare to believe it?" Jia Cong said, "For this kind of thing, taking a step back is not a vast ocean, but an abyss. Do you dare to bet on the family's wealth and life? We are all parents now. I have never seen my daughter look like that
From that moment on, I wish I could give her everything I have." He grinned unconsciously, "My baby." Nai thought about his daughter for a moment and said seriously, "If anything in the world could threaten her,
I will not ignore her. Third sister-in-law, I am very unwilling to leave her and come to the capital thousands of miles away."
Princess Jian'an looked at him for a long time, shook her head and said: "You really don't look like someone who would rebel. A person who achieves great things does not stick to trivial matters. Is it you who asked Jia Huan to come over and accompany me to comfort the child?"
Jia Cong smiled and said: "Sister-in-law Three, don't blame him, he just lacks a muscle. Thank you, Sister-in-law Three, for your hard work."
Princess Jian'an said: "It's not that he lacks the tendon, it's that you have the extra tendon."
"It's because he's missing the tendon." Jia Cong said, "Just because many men in the world are missing the tendon, it doesn't mean they shouldn't have the tendon. The boy you gave birth to is better, and the daughter needs her father more. My family
Ruijin's temperament has become much softer since she gave birth to a child. If she is left alone to take care of it, I'm afraid she will teach her daughter too softly. Women are born with worse physical fitness than men. If they are softer, they will be easily bullied.
.”
Jia Huan rolled his eyes: "Who dares to bully your daughter?"
"That's hard to say. What if?"
"Unfounded worries!"
Princess Jian'an sighed softly and said, "I heard that someone advised you to let your daughter get engaged to the younger prince."
Jia Cong smiled and said, "Is it possible?"
"I know you won't agree, and neither will Rui Jin." Princess Jian'an looked at him seriously and said, "Jia Cong, you have the chivalrous spirit of the green forest in your heart, and you are not a king. If you can't be a king, your
Sooner or later, the heirs will be destroyed by the king, how will you treat them?"
Jia Cong shook his head and said: "Environment changes people's thoughts. Third sister-in-law has lived in Taiwan, and she still doesn't know what I want to do?" Princess Jian'an took a breath silently. He continued, "I am not a king, am I a carpenter?
The emperor Zhu Youxiao? The polo emperor Li Xuan? The locksmith emperor Louis XVI... Well, let's forget this example. The country is not maintained by the monarch alone. The army, officials, and the people are all more important than the monarch himself.
.I have soldiers and Sister Lin and my fifth uncle are helping me, so what should I be afraid of?"
"The capital is no better than Da Jiala. None of the officials or people would agree to have a female prime minister in the imperial court."
Jia Cong smiled: "Third sister-in-law, don't worry, wait a minute, Sister Lin will be here soon. It doesn't matter if you have officials, I have talents. Yan State is just bigger than Taiwan. As for the people, it will be easier.
, I can roughly guess what the first thing Sister Lin will do after taking office."
Princess Jian'an was silent for a moment: "You want to destroy our Situ family."
"Are you referring to the privilege of being born superior to others?" Jia Cong stood up, "Yes. Third sister-in-law, think about your son. King Yan's son can kill him with just one word. Aren't you afraid?" He decided.
He said, "I'm afraid." He got up and left.
Princess Jian'an said from behind: "Where is my brother?"
Jia Cong turned around and smiled: "Third sister-in-law knows my temper. Prince Lu is half my student, what can I do with him?"
Jia Huan pulled Princess Jian'an aside and said, "Why don't you ask me? I can't bear to let you go! Your brother is my brother." Jia Cong couldn't help but snicker: This guy suddenly became smart.
Back at Rongxi Hall, Zhan Kun had coaxed Jia Zheng into smiling. He talked about a good son-in-law and kept silent about his good son-in-law. In the early years, it seemed that he was not the one who was considered undesirable. Then he heard Jia Zheng stroking his beard and saying: "In that case, Yuan'er and the others
When will you return to Beijing?"
Zhan Kun said: "It will take a while. Think about it for my father-in-law, it will take two or three months from the capital to Taiwan. My son-in-law has to have someone draw the drawings first and then send them to Dajiala. She will think about it for a while.
To clean it up, I have to send the drawings back, and then my son-in-law can send people to clean it up. It will take more than half a year to go back and forth."
Jia Zheng nodded repeatedly: "It's been very fast for more than half a year, no problem."
Jia Cong was curious and turned to look at Baoyu. Baoyu also looked very interested: "Do you know someone who is good at painting?"
Zhan Kun cupped his hands and said, "I don't recognize him. Brother, do you recognize him? I hope you can recommend one or two."
Jia Zheng suddenly smiled so much that his eyebrows and beard raised up: "Baoyu is the most familiar with the talented people in the capital. He recognizes all kinds of strange people."
Baoyu also smiled and said: "Zhan Ziliang's exquisite workmanship is the best, and speaking of it, he is the eldest brother-in-law's own family; and Cheng Riching's beauty is a unique skill."
Zhan Kun said hurriedly: "There is no need for beauty. I'm afraid your sister will not be happy to see it." Jia Zheng and Baoyu laughed again. Zhan Kun then made a bow to Baoyu and said, "Ordinary people are afraid to invite such a person."
If you don’t come, I’d like to ask my second brother for help.”
Baoyu liked to do things for his sisters the most, so he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, brother-in-law, I'll go find him right away." Jia Zheng laughed more and more happily.
Jia Cong looked at the door for a long time and saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he had to raise his hand: "Um...excuse me. What are you talking about?"
Zhan Kun smiled at him and said, "Cong'er, you came just in time. I just discussed with my father-in-law what kind of house to build. My father-in-law suggested that the former prince's mansion is still vacant."
Jia Cong endured it for a long time without rolling his eyes: Wasn't this matter agreed upon more than ten days ago? Jia Cong was quite satisfied with Prince Yan's Mansion and planned to get it in the future. The Prince's Mansion was close to Prince Yan's Mansion and was well built, so he gave it to Zhan Cong.
Kun and Jia Yuanchun were living together. It was obvious that it was his eldest brother-in-law who led Jia Zheng to "suggest" it. Jia Zheng, a naive old man... He was holding back his eyes and his face became stiff. Jia Zheng looked at it and thought
He was not happy and coughed. Jia Cong hurriedly said: "Since the eldest brother-in-law likes it, I will give it to you." Jia Zheng immediately felt proud and the corners of his mouth could not help but pull up to his cheeks. Jia Cong had an illusion that the person he knew before was a fake Jia Zheng.
politics.
Jia Baoyu is a person who can follow wind and rain. Now that he has decided where his eldest sister will live, he will immediately go to visit Zhan Ziliang. Jia Cong suddenly remembered something and said to Zhan Kun: "I'll get a garden for your family."
What’s the name like?”
Zhan Kun asked curiously: "You have such idle thoughts? What is it called?"
Jia Cong said seriously: "Grand View Garden."
Zhan Kun thought for a long time: "Is there any allusion?"
"Yes." Jia Cong said, "Jia Yuanchun's garden should be called Grand View Garden." Zhan Kun looked at him, but he refused to explain.
The two of them returned to Prince Yan's Mansion and dismounted at the gate of the mansion. Someone came out of the gatehouse and met him with two dozen Qianer without saying a word. Jia Cong took a closer look: it was Dai Quan, the old eunuch in the palace. He was busy.
He bowed his hands and returned the greeting: "Eunuch Dai, you are well here!" He then said apologetically, "I heard that the people we sent were rude to my father-in-law a few days ago. I'm very sorry."
Dai Quan said: "The miscellaneous family also has some problems." Jia Cong smiled slightly.
After entering Prince Yan's Mansion, Jia Cong and Dai Quan entered Prince Yan's outer study. Dai Quan then said seriously: "I dare to ask the prince if this is rebellion or military remonstrance."
Jia Cong also said seriously: "It's obviously a rebellion, not a military remonstrance."
Dai Quan opened his eyes wide, and after a long while he said: "The Za family just told the Empress Dowager that the prince must be a military remonstrator, not a rebellion."
Jia Cong asked curiously: "How could my father-in-law have such an illusion? Unless the soldier commits suicide, his whole family will die. I can't even let my friends die, let alone myself."
Dai Quan shook his head: "Although the Za family has only met the prince once, they thought they had seen the right person... that's all. What about the seventh prince?"
"It's very good." Jia Cong said, "All the children in our family are studying, and there are good clubs and social activities. They will become useful people in the future."
Dai Quan nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I hope the prince will treat the saint well."
Jia Cong smiled: "Don't worry, father-in-law. The Supreme Emperor killed all Prince Yi Zhong's followers because he was afraid that they would rebel and pull him down. I'm not afraid. My army is strong enough. If the late emperor had given all the military power to the Supreme Emperor, he wouldn't be afraid even if he thought about it.
Of Prince Yoshitaka.”
Dai Quan smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty, are you really not afraid of being infamy for thousands of years?"
Jia Cong asked back: "Has Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty been in disgrace for ten thousand years? Has Taizu of the Song Dynasty been in disgrace for ten thousand years? Didn't one of them steal his grandson's kingdom, and the other steal the young master's country?"
Dai Quan was speechless. After a long time, he said: "Since the prince has made up his mind, the Za family dare not say anything. The Za family has something to ask the prince."
"you say."
"The saint is already twenty."
Jia Cong blinked: "Ha?!"
Dai Quan sighed: "The saint is already twenty."
"It's been so long..." Jia Cong thought for a while and said, "I'm not willing to send another innocent girl into the Forbidden City. Father-in-law, you go back and ask him if he wants to leave the palace and be an ordinary person.
After all, no one else can enter the Forbidden City. He has never seen many people in his life. People for no reason would not think that there is no emperor in the palace. When he really needs to show up, he can just find someone of similar age to take his place.
"
Dai Quan was stunned: "It can still be like this!"
"Why not? Besides, no one cares about this. If you hadn't come today, I would have thought he was the seven or eight-year-old kid back then. By the way, is there anyone else in the palace? Apart from the Empress Dowager,
Are there any princesses and concubines?"
"The princesses are all married. There are also several concubines who have raised the princesses."
"Send them all out of the palace." Jia Cong said, "If you are willing to go back to your parents' home, be with your daughter, and get married, I will give them a widowhood and a dowry. If you are willing to be independent, I will also give them an inheritance. If you don't want to
In the capital, you can go to other countries or overseas." He thought again, "They must be able to learn skills such as chess, calligraphy, and painting, so teaching shouldn't be a problem."
Dai Quan was a little annoyed: "Those are all the Emperor's women."
Jia Cong spread his hands: "Almost all the women of the Supreme Emperor outside the palace are married, except for those who have sons who are embarrassed to remarry. Don't you know, father-in-law? Why don't you go and find out. The Supreme Emperor has already become a bandit, why do you still have an empty title?
Baba occupies so many women?"
Dai Quan had also heard these rumors, and his face was like gold paper, and he remained silent for a long time. Just as Jia Cong was thinking about whether to read the book, Dai Quan spoke again: "What about the Empress Dowager?"
"She should stay in the palace. She is disabled and no one will take care of her when she is sent out of the palace." Jia Cong suddenly remembered something and cupped his hands and said, "I'd like to trouble my father-in-law to go back and ask if there are any eunuchs who are willing to leave the palace. I don't want to leave."
No problem. Also, what kind of organization is used to purify eunuchs? Let’s abolish it tomorrow.”
Dai Quan sneered: "When the prince ascends the throne in the future, won't he have to add new eunuchs?"
Jia Cong looked at him for a while and said calmly: "If I said that one of the reasons for my rebellion is to abolish the eunuch system, would you believe it?" Dai Quan was startled. Jia Cong sighed, "My father-in-law, don't you think so?
,Is it sinful to ruin so many good boys? You are also a victim yourself."
Dai Quan's eyes suddenly turned red and he said hoarsely: "Slaves... are born to be useless people."
Jia Cong patted his shoulder and thought for a moment: "That's right. It's time to abolish the selling of titles." Dai Quan trembled. Jia Cong smiled and said, "Don't worry, there are others in the palace."
The way to make money.”
Dai Quan hurriedly asked: "What is it?"
"Many people are curious about what it's like inside the Forbidden City." Jia Cong waved his hand in the shape of a lucky cat, "My father-in-law, I think if I charge five hundred taels of silver a day, how many people will be willing to go sightseeing in the Forbidden City?"
Dai Quan was stunned for a long time and shouted out loud: "You want to charge people to let people wander in the Forbidden City?"
"Yes." Jia Cong said with a smile, "I have been planning this for many years."
