The eldest son of the red mansion

Then the maids brought fragrant tea, and Jia Ke asked, "Master Wei, what business do you have in Beijing this time?"

Wei Jian quickly stood up and said: "Reporting to the shuchen, this time, I came to Beijing to report on my work. I heard that the imperial court is now in charge of the shuchen, so I came here specially to visit."

Jia Ke nodded with a smile all over his face, and then looked at Wei Jian in front of him with a mysterious smile. Wei Jian seemed to be in a trance for a moment, and then he woke up immediately. When he woke up, he saw Jia Ke again. It's different.

At this moment, Jia Ke's housekeeper, Qian Mao, came in and saw that he was holding more than a dozen greeting cards in his arms, and came to Jia Ke's side and said, "Master, these are greeting cards from more than a dozen civil servants. I have asked the concierge to accept the gift."

Jia Ke took these greeting cards and read them again, and then said to Wei Jian who was sitting below: "I still have something to do here, so I won't keep Master Wei anymore."

Wei Jian stood up and said respectfully: "I will take my leave now. Please take care of yourself and don't overwork yourself."

Jia Ke sat there and just nodded without any courtesy.Just watching Wei Jian leave the flower hall.

After Wei Jian left, Jia Ke asked Qian Mao, "These people are just here to visit, do you want to ask for something?"

Qian Mao quickly took out another piece of paper from his pocket, and respectfully handed it to Jia Ke. It turned out that Qian Mao had already inquired clearly about the purpose of these people.

Jia Ke had seen these papers before and looked at them carefully, but they were all reserved positions, or they wanted to be transferred to other places for employment.

Based on the information obtained by the Military Aircraft Office during this period, Jia Ke crossed out some of the names with serious risks, and then said to Qian Mao: "Except for the names I crossed out, other gifts are acceptable."

Qian Mao immediately understood what Jia Ke meant, and immediately bowed to Jia Ke and said, "Don't worry, sir, I'll do it right away."

After Qian Mao finished speaking, he bowed and left the flower hall.

And Jia Ke looked at Qian Mao's leaving figure with a meaningful smile in his eyes.

In the following days, Jia Ke began to monopolize Chaogang, and the memorials sent from all over the country had to go through his final review before deciding how to implement them.

Taking advantage of this time, Jia Ke secretly sent some of his cronies cultivated in Xuanfu Town to various places as military chiefs, but did not take any greater action against the more influential civil servant group.

The Wenchen Group also understood Jia Ke's behavior as a compromise to them, as if telling them that he would no longer interfere with Wenchen's affairs.Several bigwigs of the Wenchen Group thought that Jia Ke had already made a certain compromise, and they had suffered a heavy loss this time, so it was not easy to push each other too much, and it was good for everyone to live in peace, after all, they thought they had absolute Advantage.The officials of the Manchu Dynasty were all civil servants. Although Jia Ke controlled the center, they still had to handle the affairs, so they no longer took this matter to heart.Instead, the various factions within them started fighting each other again.

Jia Ke worked hard to maintain the stability of the court during the more than ten days when the emperor was recovering from illness. He turned a blind eye to the factions fighting each other in the court again, and ignored them as long as they were not too excessive.

Although the emperor was recuperating in the harem, he knew everything about the court. He still agreed with Jia Ke's current handling.As long as the country is not endangered, these civil servants fight with each other, but it is conducive to the emperor's control of the court.

With the passage of time, Jia Ke's control of the court and the handling of world affairs have become more and more handy. Now the Military Aircraft Department only handles official duties in the morning.In the afternoon, they, the military ministers, will each go back to their own yamen gates to deal with the affairs they are responsible for.

Every afternoon, Jia Ke went to the infantry commander's yamen to take care of various affairs.

During this period of time, Zheng Kai was appointed by Jia Ke as the deputy general of the Xishan Camp, and controlled the Xishan Camp for daily drills. He retrained these soldiers according to Jia Ke's method, so that Jia Ke could fully understand the newly attached troops. Take control.

Luo Cen replaced Jia Ke to control the infantry and lead the yamen, and trained the original [-] infantry to lead the yamen, which has been completely reborn.If you pull it out now, you can already compete with the energy of the world.

Xiao Kun controls the Forbidden Army. Because the Forbidden Army participated in the rebellion last time, Jia Ke took this opportunity to make a big change. Now most of the Forbidden Army are soldiers from the original Xuanfu Town.It can be said that he controlled the most perfect troops, but many middle-level officials, he did not move.Therefore, on the surface, the Imperial Army still seems to have the most power in the hands of the emperor, but they don't know that these officials have been evacuated by Jia Ke. As long as Jia Ke gives an order, these people are puppets made of clay.

The other part is the Ruijian Camp. Most of the current Ruijian Camp are people from Xuanfu Town, and there are also some people separated from the Forbidden Army. After joining the Ruijian Camp, these people quickly integrated into the new group.And this part of the team is controlled by Ma Zuo's gang Jia Ke.

The young general Xiao Yue, who was bought by Jia Ke in exchange for hundreds of horses before the battle, was arranged by Jia Ke in the Ruijian camp, and asked him to retrain with the newly joined imperial troops.So that he can integrate well into this army, I am very optimistic about this young general Jia Ke.It will be of great use in the future.

And Fan Kang, Jia Ke's most important counselor, was appointed by him as the chief secretary of the infantry commanding yamen. Although he was called the chief secretary, he actually controlled the central army when he was away and gave advice when he needed it.

During this time, Jia Ke would visit the four barracks every afternoon in order to increase his presence in the eyes of the soldiers and let them know who the commander of the army is.It is precisely because Jia Ke has these troops that he feels that he can resist the forces in Beijing.

With the passage of time, Jia Ke has become more and more in control of these armies. On the surface, Jia Ke is still a general of the imperial court, but in fact he is already a warlord who controls most of the north, but no one knows this.

Chapter 281 Pregnancy

With the passage of time, the emperor's body began to recover, and he began to go to court to handle official duties again. Due to his performance during this period, Jia Ke had completely gained the trust of the emperor and was regarded as his confidant.

With the help of Jia Ke, the emperor was finally able to balance the power in the court. Now the civil servants and Jia Ke supported by the emperor are almost the same. Relying on his position as the foreman of the military aircraft department, he can dictate everything and barely suppress the civil servants.

After the balance of forces in the court was balanced, the emperor started to run to Diaoyutai, and only started to help Jia Ke when he was a little weak.so that the situation will not be out of balance.

In this way, several months passed peacefully. In these few months, Jia Ke replaced the emperor and almost handled most of the government affairs.Now, the other military ministers have almost become Jia Ke's subordinates.

Therefore, Jia Ke's status is becoming more and more stable, and the status of Rongguo Mansion and Wuyanghou Mansion in Beijing is also increasing day by day. At the end of spring and early summer, there are 10,000+ taels of silver sent to Wuyanghou Mansion from various places. The Jia Mansion also made an exception this year and received 4 to [-] taels of silver, which has not happened in decades.

But now the Jia family is considered extremely wealthy in the capital, and now the Jia family has regained the top spot among the four major families. Even the Wang family, which owns Prince Teng, has begun to avoid the Jia family's edge.

This is only in the capital city, in Jinling, the home of the four major families. Now the Jia family is even more domineering, and even the children of the other four major families have begun to look at no one.Therefore, the reputation of the big family in the elves has become more and more corrupt.

In addition to this incident, another good thing happened in the Jia Mansion, that is, Li Gongcai was pregnant. This incident was quite a sensation in the Rongguo Mansion. He is also the son and grandson of the Rongguo Mansion.

Mrs. Wang was overjoyed when she got the news, and now she is finally relieved that Jia Zhu finally has offspring, and even if there are any accidents in the future, there will be no offspring.

Mother Jia couldn't close her mouth when she heard the news. All kinds of rare medicinal materials were rewarded to Li Wan's house like flowing water. Mother Jia had been looking forward to holding a great-grandson for a long time. Now Mother Jia is very satisfied with the development of Rongguo Mansion. Now Rongguo Mansion is one of the best families in Beijing, and now has the fourth generation, which can be regarded as perfect.

When Qin Keqing went to see Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang, she often heard them talking about Second Grandma Li's pregnancy. On the surface, she didn't take it seriously, but she was very anxious in her heart.She has been married to Jia Ke for much longer than Li Wan, but Li Wan is pregnant now, but she has not moved, which puts her under a lot of pressure.Although Jia Ke never put pressure on her, she herself felt the pressure from all directions pressing down like a mountain.

Once Qin Keqing went to Aunt Zhou's place to say hello, Aunt Zhou took her hand and chatted for a while, and glanced at her belly from time to time. Although Aunt Zhou didn't say it clearly, the sensitive Qin Keqing already understood what she meant.It seems that Aunt Zhou is also a little anxious, and now she may be wondering whether Qin Keqing can't give birth.

Qin Keqing also felt strange eyes in Wuyang Hou's mansion, among which Qiaolian was the most unscrupulous, she relied on being Aunt Zhou and he relied on being Aunt Zhou's niece, although she was never rude to Qin Keqing, nor did she listen to him. There is no gossip.But every time she drifted over, her eyes were the same as now.At the beginning, it was very concealed, but later it became unscrupulous, and even showed an angry look on its face.

Moreover, Qin Keqing once heard from Lan Xiang, who was now by his side, that Jia Ke had drugged all three of their concubines, and as long as Qin Keqing did not give birth to the eldest son, none of the three of them would be able to conceive.Now that I think about it, Qiaolian should be a little anxious, and she dislikes that her stomach is always silent, so that the other three concubines cannot enjoy the happiness of their mother.

Qin Keqing returned to Wuyang Hou Mansion from Aunt Zhou again, this time she felt even more anxious.

This time she went to greet Aunt Zhou, Aunt Zhou was a little impatient, and asked her if there was anything wrong and uncomfortable.Otherwise, how could there be no movement in the stomach for such a long time, which made Qin Keqing embarrassed and helpless, whoever let her stomach not live up to expectations, could only let Aunt Zhou sigh there.

Ruizhu, who had been by Qin Keqing's side all the time, felt that something was wrong with her, so she quietly asked beside Qin Keqing, "Grandma, are you troubled by the pregnancy?" This matter is no longer a secret, Marquis Wuyang The people in the mansion began to feel anxious. Now they were worried that Qin Keqing would not be able to give birth to an heir, and finally gave up the huge mansion to the Rongguo mansion next to him.

"Yes, why do you think my stomach is so unbearable? Li Wan has been in the house for a shorter time than me, and she is now pregnant. As a sister-in-law, my stomach has not moved yet. Do you think it makes people anxious?" Qin Keqing He frowned slightly, and said with a delicate and angry face.

"Miss, the matter of having a child depends on God's will. We ordinary people have the final say. No matter how anxious you are, it's useless." Ruizhu can only enlighten her non-stop, but what's the use? ?

"Ruizhu, do you think it would be helpful for us to go to the temple to ask the Bodhisattva?" Qin Keqing asked Ruizhu uncertainly. Qin Keqing is already in a hurry to go to the doctor for some illnesses. As long as she thinks she can get pregnant, there are many ways to do it. try.If the nanny at home hadn't sent letters from other places telling her not to take medicine indiscriminately, she might have even used those folk remedies.

While the two of them were talking, they heard someone answer Qin Keqing outside the door, "If you have anything to ask the Bodhisattva, you might as well ask me. There are still things in this world that we can't do now?"

Qin Keqing was startled by the sudden voice outside the window, and then saw the door curtain being opened, and Jia Ke walked in from the outside.

"I didn't say a word when I came back, almost scared my soul out." Qin Keqing gave Jia Ke angrily a look.

As soon as Jia Ke entered the room, Ruizhu hurried forward to help him change his clothes. While enjoying Ruizhu's service, Jia Ke asked Qin Keqing, "Why are you going to the temple to conjure Bodhisattvas? Just tell me if you have anything to do. "

Qin Keqing's face turned red from his question, and she was too embarrassed to speak.

Seeing Qin Keqing's appearance, Ruizhu had no choice but to say for their young lady, "Master, our eldest grandma is worried because Second Grandma Li of the East Mansion is pregnant, but she hasn't moved yet, so she wants to go to the temple to pray to the Bodhisattva, so that she can help her." Grandpa gave birth to a fat boy."

When Qin Keqing heard Ruizhu say everything, she became even more shy.So he lay down on the bed, covered his head with a pillow, and refused to raise his head no matter what.

Jia Ke had finished changing and came to Qin Keqing's bedside, took the pillow off her head, hugged her, let her lean against her body, and gently persuaded her, "This son is all from heaven." The arrangement is fixed, can it be changed without permission by asking the Bodhisattva? As long as you do good deeds often, the jade tree will naturally bloom and bear fruit. If you go to the temple to ask the Bodhisattva, you might as well spend some money and go to Xicheng to give away porridge, maybe it will be of some use."

Qin Keqing leaned in Jia Ke's arms, and felt that what Jia Ke said was very reasonable. She hadn't given birth to a child yet, so it must be because of her own merits and virtues. After hearing Jia Ke's method, her eyes rolled around, and she felt that this method could be tried. Try, she is not short of those two money now.

So not long after, a special porridge stall appeared in Xicheng, as long as it was from poor families.You can go there every day to get a bowl of porridge to drink, but after drinking the porridge, you have to say a word about giving birth to a precious child early.And this stall is not only in one place, it will be moved to other places in the west city every few days.
