The effect of saluting Taizu Gao Emperor is not only great, but also very good.
Although there was no applause, Jia Liu believed that the eyes of the princes and ministers present were sharp, and they were just not good at expressing their emotions.
Lao A, Lao Kui, Lao Yang, and Lao Xu were relatively open. Although they did not stand up to applaud, the expressions on their faces told Jia Liu that his move was a great success and seriously impacted the views of the princes and ministers.
, achieved first-class results, which are impressive.
The old man also said something silently. Through lip-reading comparison, Jia Liu was sure that the old man meant: "Your Majesty's move is really high, so high!"
Nodding slightly, it is indeed true.
"Your Majesty is so tall and hard!"
The look of admiration on Queenie's face was undisguised, and she showed the magnanimity in her heart.
Jia Liu was very happy when he saw it. He likes such unpretentious people.
Naturally, his eyes fell on the old rich man's face. The old rich man's cheeks twitched slightly, and then he opened and closed his mouth several times towards the six wise brothers.
Jia Liu was stunned after hearing this: Does the old rich have such strong taste?
Looking at the other military ministers, they either frowned slightly or had puzzled expressions on their faces. They seemed to be uncomfortable with Jia Liu saluting Emperor Taizu Gao.
After all, there are no rules to follow and no examples to imitate.
The host of the meeting next to the old man, the twelfth elder brother Yongxun, had no expression on his face, but he felt very awkward in his heart because just now Guiziliu claimed to represent the clan's children, which seemed a bit excessive.
You represent the clan members, who do I represent?
And it’s hard to say whether you, Guiziliu, will be the queen of King Yu, so why does it mean that I love Xinjieluo?
Only Rich Dad didn't express his position, and Yong Cang couldn't stand up to accuse him. At the same time, he also knew that he couldn't afford to offend Guiziliu, the self-proclaimed spokesperson of the clan, so he could only stand up and awkwardly announce the adjournment of the meeting.
The princes and ministers all went home from get off work, and Jia Liu could not go home. As a candidate for the Hat Prince, he had to stay in the Zongren Mansion with other candidates for another day.
Tomorrow morning, a bachelor from the National History Museum will come to give the candidates a half-day history lesson on the founding of the Qing Dynasty. In the afternoon, the Zongren Mansion will also organize candidates to intensively study the genealogy of the early kings.
The former is to strengthen patriotic education, and the latter is to strengthen the sense of family unity.
Both are indispensable.
After all, the Qing Dynasty was the Qing Dynasty of Aisin Gioro, not the Qing Dynasty of the slaves and subjects.
In addition to studying, candidates can only eat vegetarian meals throughout the day and no meat or fish.
They probably want the candidates to be purified physically and mentally so that they can usher in a major turning point in their lives.
This process was not proposed by Jia Liu, it was added by Queenie with a slap on the forehead.
Maybe it was to make this voting meeting more ceremonial.
The day after tomorrow, all candidates will take the morning bus directly to the palace under the leadership of Prince Zong Lingyi Hongxiao.
At that time, who is the chosen one and who is a fake will be finally revealed.
For Jia Liu, it really means not only high and low, but also life and death.
If you choose, everyone will be fine and everything will be fine.
If you can’t choose, don’t leave at all. Keep choosing until the Chinese New Year!
As the attending princes and ministers left the scene, the clan mansion immediately became deserted.
Candidates who stay must first arrange accommodation.
Under the arrangements of the relevant staff of the Zongren Mansion, Jia Liu and his bodyguard Baozhu were assigned to a courtyard in the northeast corner.
The one next door was Gushan Beizi Yongzhuang, who once rushed to the palace to beat Qianlong at the Qianqing Palace, and the other was Yongwei, the auxiliary Duke.
Yongzhuang's grandfather was Prince Chun Yinyou, the seventh son of the holy ancestor Kangxi, and Yongwei's grandfather was Yinreng, the deposed prince of the Kangxi Dynasty who was later posthumously named Prince Li by Yongzheng.
In the primary election, Yongzhuang received 22 votes, while Yongwei received slightly more votes, with 27 votes.
The person who nominated Yongzhuang was Chuo Ketuo, the Minister of Industry. The reason was that Chuo Ketuo had served as the chief historian of Prince Chun's palace in his early years. But even with this relationship, Chuo Ketuo still received Yongzhuang's nomination fee of 14,000 taels. .
The person who nominated Yong Wei was Qing Gui, the Manchu military minister. Qing Zhongtang confiscated Yong Wei's money because Qing Gui's grandfather Yin Tai had been the teacher of the deposed prince Yin Reng.
To be fair, Yongwei is defeated, and Yongzhuang is definitely not qualified to be a candidate because he has deceived the emperor.
A person who has beaten the emperor can be nominated and successfully enter the second round. Needless to say, it is mostly the result of the secret manipulation of the old rich.
It is disgusting to Qianlong.
When Yongzhuang beat Qianlong, he also fought against Jia Liu, but Jia Liu didn't hold grudges, so he greeted Yongzhuang with a smile and didn't seem to hold any grudge at all.
Yongzhuang dared to beat the emperor at the court meeting, which showed that he had a bad mind and was a fool and a thick man. Therefore, he turned a blind eye to the olive branch extended by Jia Jia, the candidate who won the first place in the vote.
Yong Wei was smarter and gave him a smile and a nod before Master Jia Jia greeted him.
Jia Liu dressed up and greeted people in the same way.
Then the three of them entered their respective courtyards.
As a result, the courtyard assigned to Jia Liu turned out to be very empty, with not many rooms, only three.
Based on the yard area, at least a dozen houses can be built on such a large land.
This makes people a little strange.
Suddenly, Jia Liu's right eyelid twitched. Before he could react, his eyelid kept twitching endlessly.
If you jump to the left, you will get wealth, if you jump to the right, you will get disaster!
broken!
Jia Liu's heart sank and he looked around again, finding that the air was unsettling and the layout of the courtyard looked ghostly.
"Sir, what happened?"
Noticing that the president was a little uneasy, the team leader quickly asked.
Jia Liu didn't answer, but walked to the door and happened to have a host of people passing by. He stopped the person without saying a word, and then asked him who lived in this courtyard before.
It was no wonder that a hundred taels of silver note was naturally thrust into the hands of the host.
I really don't have any change on me.
With his current net worth, it would be a bit contemptuous to carry loose change with him.
"this"
Lord Man, who originally wanted to refuse to answer, saw that Lord Shikai had given too much, so he had to look around and whispered: "To tell you what to say, the houses here are used to confine the children of the clan who committed crimes, as well as the concubines who committed crimes in the palace. of."
ah?
Jia Liu was stunned for a moment and then remembered, wasn't this wretched place in the Clan's Mansion specially reserved for the clan's clan?
I can't help but feel unlucky.
He had no choice but to arrange it like this. If others didn't have any objections, he couldn't jump out and object, so he had to ask the question he was most concerned about: "Well, has anyone died in this hospital where I live?"
There is a big difference between imprisoning someone and killing someone.
"this."
Manager Man didn't want to say anything because his superiors had ordered him not to talk nonsense about the clan's affairs, but Master Shikai stuffed another one for himself.
"Yes! Prince Azige and his son Laoqin were sentenced to death in the courtyard where you live. In addition, the deposed prince Yunfeng also died here."
Hearing this, Jia Liu's face immediately turned green.
This is not a general bad luck, but a particularly bad luck.
If you consider that you will soon become the hat king of the Qing Dynasty, then it is not particularly unlucky, but extremely unlucky.
Upon seeing this, Lord Man knew that this was a bit unlucky, but he still comforted Master Shikai and said, "But don't worry, Sir, the Thirteenth Master also lived in this courtyard, that is, Prince Lao Yi, who lived here for ten years."
These words made Jia Liu's face soften a little, but there was still a shadow in his heart, so he asked Renman if the manager could help him change to a room where no one had died.
Manager Man immediately shook his head. It was not that he was unwilling to help, but that the residence was arranged by Prince Zong Lingyi himself, and no one except Prince Yi dared to adjust it randomly.
In desperation, Jia Liu could only return to his residence where the hat king and the prince had died in despair.
His eyelids were still twitching, making him extremely uneasy.
He gritted his teeth and asked Baozhu to sharpen his ink. Then he picked up the brush and swiped it on the wall facing the bed in the room where he slept.
Looking at the strange symbols on the wall, Baozhu looked puzzled: "Sir, what is this?"
"This house has been home to powerful people from the Qing Dynasty. Although I believe in science, my belief in ghosts and gods is absolutely correct. This talisman can ward off evil spirits."
Don't say it, it's really spiritual.
Jia Liu's right eye stopped twitching on the spot.
To be on the safe side, he told Baozhu: "Just in case, don't sleep tonight and keep a vigil for me. No, keep a vigil for me. Do you understand?"
"understand!"
Baozhu quickly took out his saber and sat on the stool. Jia Liu was tired after a long day and was in low spirits. He fell down on the bed and fell asleep quickly.
The breeze blew through the candles, causing the huge evil-proofing symbols on the wall to light up and darken for a while.
Unknowingly, Baozhu's snoring could also be heard.
The boy fell asleep sitting up.
Jia Liu woke up in the middle of the night and had to put some clothes on Baozhu to prevent him from catching a cold.
There was no movement outside the window, Azig's grimace did not come out, and the ghost of the abandoned prince did not wander back and forth at the door.
