Why did this guy hook up with the second child? Is it some kind of 'historical inertia'?
After listening to Mr. Zheng's enthusiastic introduction, the elder learned that Jia Yucun was the prefect of Ping'an Prefecture. This time when he went to Beijing to report on his work, he accidentally met Mr. Zheng and was regarded as a confidant for a while.
Tsk tsk, the second master of politics is really not suitable for the officialdom with complex people's hearts!
Of course, if you didn't know what Jia Yucun was in the original work, the first time you met Jia Yucun, you would be very impressed.
This guy has a good-looking appearance and a sense of "righteousness". Not only does he conform to the aesthetics of a literati, he also does not have the "weakness" of a literati at all. No matter his words or demeanor, there is nothing bad about him.
The elder just nodded lightly to express his acquaintance. He was just a fourth-grade prefect of Ping'an Prefecture, and there was no need for him to be too polite. He was already very nice to show off.
On the other hand, Ping'an Prefecture, where this guy works, is not a friendly place.
How can I say that place? It was the home base of the people of the former Crown Prince, Prince Yi Zhong. Both the military and political affairs were firmly in the hands of Prince Yi Zhong, the old man.
When King Yizhong was still in Daqi, Ping'an Prefecture was his biggest trump card. There were nearly 100,000 troops in one prefecture, which was quite astonishing.
However, Prince Yizhong suddenly left Daqi to fight on the big island in the South China Sea. Most of Ping'an Prefecture's elite troops were taken away, and the rest were ambitious people who could not leave their hometown and had been abandoned.
As far as the elder knows, there are already ideas to rectify Ping'an Prefecture, but I don't know if the Jia Yu Village in front of me is a chess piece arranged by the current people?
This guy is not a kind person. Judging from his actions in the original work, he is a standard white-eyed wolf, and he is quite capable and has a very good official career.
In the original work, this guy reached the highest position of Grand Sima, that is, the Minister of War. His position was so high that no one dared to be careless.
The elder thought more. Jia Yucun was born as a scholar. Although his character was shameful, such a guy actually became the Minister of the Ministry of War. Could it be that the Xungui Group was completely defeated in the original work?
Otherwise, the Ministry of War, as the private territory of the Honorable Group, has been controlled by the Eight Dukes family of the founding country for many years, and would not be allowed to be interfered by the civil servant group. However, in the original work, Jia Yucun not only took the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, but also enjoyed a good life.
I just don’t know if his final defeat was due to the backlash from the Honorable Group?
These were just the thoughts that flashed through the great master's mind for a moment. The look on his face was calm, and no one could tell what he was thinking.
Jia Yucun left with some regrets. He felt very regretful that he could not call Jia Gongbu's immediate attention and missed a good opportunity to make friends with him.
However, this guy had a deep mind and didn't reveal anything on the surface. He chatted and laughed with the second master Zheng, and soon made the second master Zheng feel very happy and excited.
Straw bag!
This is Jia Yucun's evaluation of Mr. Zheng, and he feels a little angry in his heart.
The second master of the government was born in a good family, and he was easily promoted to the rank of a fourth-rank official without any ability. However, he had worked hard all these years and was willing to take risks and went to Ping'an Prefecture to work as an undercover agent, and then he successfully entered the rank of a fourth-rank official.
, God is so unfair!
Yes, Jia Yucun's fate in this life is even more difficult than in the original work.
If Jia Min did not die early, he would naturally lose the opportunity to become Mr. Daiyu, and Lin Ruhai escaped from the whirlpool of becoming famous early. Jia Yucun had no chance to establish a relationship with Rongguo Mansion early through Lin Ruhai's introduction.
This guy is also a capable person. When he was extremely depressed, he even sneaked into the Jinling Zhen family and became Zhen Baoyu's teacher.
It's a pity that the Zhen family was dishonest at first and was severely repaired by the eldest boss who was still serving as chief envoy in Jiangsu Province. For a time, their reputation was greatly reduced and they did not dare to mess around. Jia Yucun also lost the opportunity to recover.
Without the help of the Zhen family to smoothen the relationship, it would be useless for him to come to the capital alone. Resurrecting an official is not such a simple matter. Without sufficient backstage support, there is no need to count on it.
Jia Yucun had no choice but to let go of the Zhen family, so he had no choice but to continue working as a teacher in the Zhen family for five or six years.
That is to say, the eldest master was later transferred to the capital, and the shackles on the Zhen family were lifted. He used the relationship between Princess Zhen and her son, Prince Zhong, to return to his previous arrogance and domineering, and soon became the so-called first family in Jinling.
Jia Yucun showed his performance in time, and was finally recommended by the Zhen family to serve as a staff member in Prince Zhongzhong's Mansion for a period of time. After gaining the attention of Prince Zhongcheng, he finally entered officialdom.
In the beginning, he was just a seventh-grade county magistrate, and there was no way he could be the prefect of Jinling.
This guy is also a man who knows how to work hard. He has been promoted to the fifth rank in just a few years. At this time, there is an opportunity to go further and work as an undercover agent in Ping'an Prefecture. The court can directly give him the position of the fourth rank prefect.
As the saying goes, wealth can be gained through danger. Jia Yucun felt that the opportunity was rare, so he took a gamble and successfully became a top-level mid-level official and achieved the position of a fourth-grade prefect.
These situations were all information obtained by the elder after the incident, and he had a bold guess in his mind.
"It is very likely that there will be an attack on Ping'an Prefecture in the near future. You must be careful not to get involved!"
After returning home on the third day of the Spring Festival, he saw that her married life was going well. The elder felt relieved for the time being, and then he could think about other things. After getting the information about Jia Yu Village, he recruited a series of officials such as Lian Er and Zheng Er.
, he got straight to the point without being wordy.
As he spoke, he handed the information in his hand to Lin Ruhai. After they had read all the information, he smiled and said: "Jia Shifei, the prefect of Ping'an Prefecture, is a chess piece in Ping'an Prefecture today. If there is nothing important, how can he easily
leave?"
"Brother, is there something wrong with Jia Shifei?"
Mr. Zheng Er had a look of disbelief on his face and felt very embarrassed. He didn't expect that something went wrong with the friend he had just made.
At the same time, Jia Shifei's intelligence performance was also astonishing. He was definitely a powerful official opportunist.
It is remarkable that he could go from being a criminal official to a loyal prince through his connections with the Zhen family, and then re-enter the officialdom through the loyal prince, and be promoted to the position of fourth-grade prefect in a short period of time.
"That's not true!"
The elder smiled and said: "Ping'an Prefecture is a sensitive place. I also heard your introduction to Jia Shifei, and I became alert, so I sent someone to check Jia Shifei's details!"
Mr. Zheng Er breathed a long sigh of relief, but it was not Jia Shifei's problem, and he was not very interested in other things.
So what if Ping'an Prefecture is sensitive? There is no intersection at all. Even if something unexpected happens, it can't be tied to him.
"Brother-in-law, what should we do?"
Lin Ruhai was still the Minister of Taichang Temple at this time, and he was quite satisfied with this position. He did not have much work on weekdays and could spend more time with his family.
Of course, the Supreme Emperor has not died completely. For the safety of yourself and your family, it is better not to mess around. The risk is a bit high.
"Just wait and see what happens, it has nothing to do with us!"
The elder waved his hand and said with a smile: "I came here to ask you to know what you are doing. Don't be confused and drag others down!"
This makes sense!
The dangers of officialdom are no joke. Many officials were tricked because of lagging information, and some even failed to stand up.
"Without Prince Yizhong, those guys from Ping'an Prefecture won't be able to cause any trouble at all!"
Lian Er curled his lips and said with a look of disdain: "The courage of those guys is really boundless. They dare to go against the powerful Jin Jin. Don't you know how to write the word "death"?"
Now that there are no two great enemies, Prince Zhongshun and Prince Yi Zhong, it is easy to take complete control of the court.
That is to say, the Supreme Emperor is still alive and it is better not to go too far now, so we did not vigorously clean up the old ministers in the court. Otherwise, the court at this time can really be said to be the same as today.
If the guys from Ping'an Prefecture still dare to confront Jin Jin, it's no different than seeking death.
"This matter has nothing to do with us, just wait and see what happens!"
The elder smiled and said: "Maybe there will be big shots in the court who will be unlucky. You should be careful these days and don't get involved in matters related to the royal family!"
"What, did my uncle find something?"
Lin Ruhai's heart trembled, and she asked curiously: "Is there anyone in the royal family who dares to go against today?"
"That's not true!"
The elder sighed leisurely: "The emperor's younger sons have grown up, and the first few sons of today have also reached the time of experience. I am afraid that a new round of battle for the right to inherit the throne will begin again!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone sitting there changed and they were frightened by the elder's words.
They didn't know how brutal the battle to win the legitimate son was, but looking at how fierce the fight with Prince Yi Zhong and Prince Zhongshun was before, they knew that the battle to seize the legitimate son was much more cruel.
As the elder said, the Supreme Emperor has many sons. The sons who grew up in the past were basically trapped in the struggle for the right to inherit the throne. They were either killed for rebellion or imprisoned until death. The current rise to power is also quite accidental.
But the Supreme Emperor is old-hearted. In the first few years after he ascended the throne, the Supreme Emperor, who held great power in the court, had just recovered his health and couldn't wait to select many beautiful girls to enrich his harem.
Nowadays, while he is working hard and fighting with the two royal bosses, the Emperor's younger sons are being born one after another.
Because the age gap between them and today is too big, it is impossible for them to pose any threat to the throne. Today is still very good to these younger brothers.
In the blink of an eye, these little sons of the Supreme Emperor have grown up. Now it is natural to arrange for them to go to the Liubu Yamen for training, otherwise the Supreme Emperor will not agree.
Suddenly, five or six of the emperor's younger sons wanted to go to the Sixth Division to gain experience, and the impact on the Sixth Division was quite severe.
Not to mention, several of the older princes under his knees have grown up and have reached the age where they can gain experience, which indicates that a new round of succession is about to begin.
