The news of Jia Zhu's death soon spread in the capital. As the first royal relative to die, Jia Zhu naturally received high-standard treatment.
The Yin and Yang Division of the Qin Tian Jian came to choose a date, and they chose the exact day of 7749. Three days later, the funeral was held and the obituary was delivered. One hundred and eight Zen monks recited the Sutra of Transcendence, and ninety-nine Quanzhen Taoist priests rectified the injustice and washed their karma.
There are also fifty eminent monks and fifty eminent monks facing the altar "doing good deeds according to the seven."
Not to mention, Jia Ke specially gave a sandalwood coffin as a birthday gift to Jia Zhu.
Every day, countless court officials and dignitaries came to offer incense to Jia Zhu. The swirling incense directly enveloped the entire Rongguo Mansion.
On the day of Jia Zhu's funeral, Jia Ke ordered Li Deshan to go to Prince Rong's Mansion on his behalf.
During the funeral, the door of the house was opened, and the lanterns on both sides shone like daylight, and people came and went in a chaotic manner, and the cries inside shook the mountains.
The streets were filled with white people coming and going, and officials were leaving for office. The gates facing the street were open, and drum halls were set up on both sides. Two teams of Qingyi played music on time, and pairs of deacons set up their swords and axes in unison.
This was also the last time that Jia Zhu performed a guard of honor and paraded through the capital.
On the way out of Beijing, officials held roadside festivals along the way. The number of officials who came to see him off was endless, and they lined up for several miles, which shows the importance attached to Jia Zhu at that time.
As Jia Zhu's younger brother, Jia Baoyu personally held the coffin and followed Jia Zhu's coffin all the way out of the capital to the royal mausoleum.
After Jia Zhu passed away, the Queen Mother couldn't afford to fall ill. If it weren't for the extraordinary ability of the imperial physician in the palace, she would have gone with her son Jia Zhu.
On the third day after Jia Zhu's funeral, Jia Ke issued an order to Prince Rong's palace, "Prince Rong's eldest son Jia Lan, who ascends to the title of Prince Rong, does not need to be demoted."
As the Supreme Emperor, Jia Zheng lamented the death of Jia Zhu for a long time.
To be honest, among Jia Zheng's sons, Jia Zhu is the one whom Jia Zheng is most optimistic about. Now that Jia Zhu is gone, the sadness in Jia Zheng's heart is incomprehensible to others.
The waves caused by Jia Zhu's death soon disappeared without a trace in the capital. After all, everyone still had to live their lives.
In this way, another five years passed in a hurry, and it was the eighth year of Kangshun in a blink of an eye.
In the past few years, the imperial court has become more and more stable, and Jia Ke's reputation has also been at its peak. Because Jia Ke has taken measures to relieve the pressure on farmers, such as giving the daughter of a daughter to the mother, never increasing taxes, etc., the people regard Jia Ke as an unprecedented wise king.
.
And because there is no harassment from the Tatars, the border has become increasingly peaceful in recent years, and the people can even go out of Jiubian and start to reclaim wasteland.
After Jia Ke learned about this trend, he not only did not stop it, but also greatly encouraged it. All wasteland cultivated by the people was owned by individuals, and all taxes were exempted within three years.
Due to Jia Ke's active encouragement policy, the people's enthusiasm for going out to reclaim land became even stronger.
Many farmers with little land or a large family left their hometowns in groups and traveled hundreds of miles to reach the grasslands.
In just a few years, nearly 10 million acres of fertile farmland have been cultivated on the grassland.
Although the land in the northern grassland is relatively barren, there is still no problem in planting a wave. In addition, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and the people have much more land than in the temple. Therefore, the people who have left the country to find a way to survive have been growing in the past few years.
Life is pretty good.
It can be said that Jia Ke now has a beautiful woman in his arms and a successful career. If there is any trouble, it is the common concern of all emperors.
Now Jia Ke's several sons who are almost grown up are fighting like five-eyed chickens.
King Jia Zhi of Chu and Jia Mao, King of Wu, even used weapons at a banquet. If Jia Ke hadn't suppressed them on the spot, one of them would have died on the spot.
In the end, in order to let the two sons have a long memory, Jia Ke directly ordered them to stay behind closed doors for half a year. If there is no order within six months, no one is allowed to visit them, and they are not allowed to leave the East Fourth Institute.
But at this time, Jia Yuanchun, who was in Chuxiu Palace, had something troublesome that kept him and her from sleeping day and night.
It turns out that as the young emperor of the previous dynasty continued to grow older, the deposed emperor's resentment towards Jia Ke also became deeper and deeper.
Once, mother and son were admiring flowers in the imperial garden, and Jia Ke suddenly arrived.
Jia Yuanchun naturally took his child to see the gift, but he didn't know that Jia Yuanchun had already knelt down and saluted Jia Ke, but the child stood there motionless.
Jia Ke glanced at the child and just smiled and shook his head, as if he didn't seem to be angry at all.
But Jia Yuanchun understands Jia Ke's ruthlessness. They live in the palace and often meet with Jia Ke. If Jia Ke doesn't get angry once or twice, does it mean that after a long time, Jia Ke really has no complaints.
Therefore, Jia Yuanchun has been having nightmares these days, dreaming that one day Jia Ke suddenly became furious and sent troops to capture her son and take him to the execution ground to be executed.
In the dream, she was holding her son's head outside the execution ground and could only cry helplessly.
Because of this dream, Jia Yuanchun woke up from his dreams several times in the past few days.
On this day, Jia Yuanchun was still awakened from her dream. She sat on the bed and hugged the quilt, shivering.
Baoqin, who was waiting beside Jia Yuanchun at this time, felt very uncomfortable seeing Jia Yuanchun like this.
Their girls used to be the most noble women in the world, but they didn't expect that they would be so frightened now.
While Baoqin kept comforting Jia Yuanchun by the bedside, he was rapidly thinking about how to get Jia Yuanchun out of this predicament.
Their master lived in the palace, so it was inevitable that he would often meet with the emperor, and the young master's attitude made it seem like he wanted to eat people every time he saw him.
Sooner or later something will happen if things go on like this. It would be better to leave the palace and live there without seeing each other. Maybe time can erase the resentment in their little master's heart.
After Baoqin figured it out, he gently suggested from the side, "Master, I know why you are troubled. I think it's better for us to move out of the palace so that we can live our lives honestly without seeing each other. Maybe
Be at peace."
Xue Baochai was trembling there, but after hearing Baoqin's words, it was like clearing the clouds and seeing the sun. Why didn't he think of such a simple method?
Jia Yuanchun thought over the idea of holding Qin carefully, and she felt more and more that it was a good idea. At that time, she made up her mind to go to Ningshou Palace to ask the Empress Dowager tomorrow morning. If she spoke, the emperor would not come
Refuting face.
After Jia Yuanchun thought about it, he fell asleep again. He didn't know if he had a solution in mind. Jia Yuanchun had a rare good sleep and didn't get up until the sun was already three o'clock in the morning.
After Jia Yuanchun got up, he dressed neatly, ate a hurried breakfast, and then took a sedan chair and went straight to the Ningshou Palace of the Empress Dowager Jia Mu.
At this time, Jia Mu had already had breakfast and was now listening to the palace daughter singing a ditty in Ningshou Palace. She was holding a cup of tea and watching a child of several years old crawling around on the ground, with a smile on her face.
The expression of happiness can be felt by others.
It turns out that the child crawling on the ground is Jia Gui, the son of Jia Baoyu and Xi Ren. Since this child lost his mother, Jia Baoyu has been eating fast and praying to Buddha every day because of Lin Daiyu. The Empress Dowager Jia Mu thought this was not a child.
After hearing that she was a little lonely in the palace, he took the initiative to take Jia Gui into his palace and raise her.
Over the past few years, Jia's mother has concentrated all her feelings for Jia Baoyu on this little child, so she can be said to be doting on Jia Gui in every possible way.
Jia Gui now has the first share of food and clothing in the palace, and even Jia Ke's son may not be able to keep up with him.
When Jia Yuanchun came to Ningshou Palace, he entered the side hall without reporting from the palace maid. Jia Gui was having fun when he suddenly saw someone coming. When he looked up, he saw that it was the beautiful aunt he liked.
So Jia Gui stretched out his hands, showing a toothless smile, and wanted Jia Yuanchun to hug him.
And Jia Yuanchun did not disappoint him. He bent down and held Jia Gui in his arms. Then he came to Jia Mu in two or three steps. He hugged Jia Gui and saluted her, and then sat down at Jia Mu's signal.
On the show pier next to it.
Jia's mother saw Jia Yuanchun, who had not been here for many days, suddenly come to her palace, and knew that something was wrong with her. After all, Jia Yuanchun, since Jia Ke ascended the throne, had lived in seclusion in the palace and rarely visited the palace.
"Is there anything going on here this time?"
Jia Yuanchun looked a little sad after hearing this, and turned around and handed Jia Gui in his arms to the mandarin duck aside.
Next, Jia Yuanchun's eye circles became a little red.
Mother Jia was a little unhappy when she saw her like this, and asked Yuanyang beside her: "What's going on? Is someone in the palace giving the eldest princess a look?"
Yuanyang has never heard of this matter. Jia Ke has been pretty good to Jia Yuanchun these years. All expenses are provided according to the queen's etiquette, and no one in the palace is open-minded and wants to trouble Jia Yuanchun.
.
"Go back to Lafayette, I have never heard of it."
Jia Yuanchun hurriedly explained: "Lafayette has misunderstood. No one dares to be rude to me."
Upon hearing this, Mother Jia looked Jia Yuanchun up and down, and asked with some confusion: "No one is rude to you, why do I cry when I see him?"
Jia Yuanchun gritted his teeth at last, stood up suddenly, knelt down in front of Jia Mu, and kowtowed as if pounding garlic.
"My granddaughter has something to ask the old lady for. The old lady thinks that I have done some good work for the Jia family, so she agrees to it this time."
When Jia Mu saw her kneeling down, she quickly ordered Yuanyang: "Quickly, help Yuanchun up."
Yuanyang quickly stepped forward to help Jia Yuanchun, but Jia Yuanchun did not stand up. Instead, he threw Yuanyang away with one hand and continued to cry there.
"Old Madam Mingjian, my son is getting older and knows a lot about people. I think he is not in the right mood these past two days. If I let him live in the palace, he might cause some trouble. I would like to ask him to
The old lady should talk to the eldest brother and give him a title so that we, mother and son, can live outside the palace."
After listening to Jia Yuanchun's story, Mother Jia finally understood why Jia Yuanchun came to her and cried.
Jia Mu did not immediately agree to Jia Yuanchun, but lowered her head and thought for a moment. To be honest, Jia Mu did not like her great-grandson very much, and she even had some ulterior thoughts in her heart.
When Jia Yuanchun saw that Jia's mother was silent, he quickly begged again with tears in his eyes.
Finally, Mother Jia looked at Jia Yuanchun's pitiful look and remembered that she had made some contributions to the Jia family, so she could only nod and said: "In that case, I will say hello to the emperor, but I don't know whether it will succeed or not."
After Jia Yuanchun heard Jia Mu's reply, he immediately kowtowed happily, "As long as I have Lafayette, I will be content with my granddaughter."
