But the emperor is not so easy to see. Unlike other novels, the emperor in the Red Mansion will not have chance encounters with his ministers outside.

Jia Zheng dutifully submitted the letter requesting an audience and found a teahouse outside the imperial city to sit and wait.

This kind of temporary memorial will usually be dealt with when the emperor has nothing to do.

What Jia Zheng is waiting for now is to wait for the emperor to be idle.

It was a hit and miss job, but he was fine at home and didn't want to face that vortex at home.

"Yo! Why is my brother-in-law here? Is there something wrong?"

Jia Zheng went out without reading the almanac, but as soon as he sat down, he met his brother-in-law Wang Ziteng.

"Brother-in-law!"

Jia Zheng held up his hands and looked at Wang Ziteng who was riding a tall horse. He narrowed his eyes and asked him where he was going.

"I'm not as comfortable as my brother-in-law."

The prince sat upright on the horse and did not get down, "The Holy Father has asked me to do something, so I just finished my work. My brother-in-law is... I heard that my brother-in-law's family has a new member today, and I haven't congratulated him yet!"

Mrs. Wang looks down on Jia Zheng, which explains Wang Ziteng's attitude. Although Mrs. Wang has a better relationship with her eldest brother, she is not bad for her younger brother Wang Ziteng.

He had previously disliked his family for restricting his development, so the first stop he came to Beijing to seek refuge in was his sister, Mrs. Wang's house.

Originally, he had a very good relationship with Jia Zheng, but since he and Jia Zheng were different, the relationship between the two families has faded.

The Jia family retreated and only recognized people from the Supreme Emperor's family, who were old-fashioned and conservative.

However, Wang Ziteng took a ride on the opportunity and followed the current emperor.

Especially after the emperor took away the official who had been running the Ningguo Mansion for many years and rewarded it to the Wang family, the relationship between the two families became much more subtle.

"Yeah! I have a new kid."

Jia Zheng smiled and rubbed salt into his brother-in-law's wounds.

"Thanks to your sister's generosity, I have another child. The same goes for my wife and brother. Don't just be busy with political affairs, the issue of children and heirs is also very important!"

Wang Ziteng's daughter-in-law is a well-known tigress. She has controlled her husband for many years. Now she has a child, a girl, and she is also very sick.

Wang Ziteng focused on his career and was not in a hurry to have children, so that when he died, the family property had to be passed on to his eldest brother's son.

Now this issue of heirs is indeed Wang Ziteng's heartache. But even the emperor has few heirs, so he is not a big deal here.

"Ah!"

Wang Ziteng glanced down and secretly scolded Jia Zheng for being short-sighted. No wonder the Supreme Emperor tried to recruit him, but he still failed to achieve success after many years.

"Brother-in-law hasn't said what he is doing here yet? We have a son in the family, and instead of taking care of the child at home, we are here... Could it be that he wants to report the good news to the Supreme Emperor, and also wants to ask him to reward him with an official position in the future?"

"It's just that I don't have as many brothers-in-law as the Duke of Rong. Alas! I feel sad for the child. Fortunately, Baoyu is smarter and has me as an uncle. I just don't know that this child..."

Jia Zheng couldn't stop laughing. Wang Ziteng was also very eloquent. If he continued to fight with his brother-in-law on the street, he would be surrounded by onlookers soon.

I don’t blame Jia Zheng for not liking Mrs. Wang. This brother-in-law whom he met outside was so shameless to him. It’s strange that he would like Mrs. Wang!

Wang Ziteng was also wondering. In the past, his brother-in-law only acted like a waiter, so how could he quarrel with him? The more strange it was, the less Wang Ziteng wanted to leave.

Just when he wanted to get off his horse and continue talking nonsense with Jia Zheng, he heard Jia Zheng irritating him.

"Indeed, child, how can you know what's good or bad until you grow up? My brother-in-law is really not busy anymore, why don't you get off your horse and have a cup of tea together?"

"Ok?"

In this way, it seems that I want to leave him to discuss it in detail?

Wang Ziteng looked around to see if any Yan Guan was wandering the street, and suddenly he saw a small yellow gate coming towards here.

"But they came to see me..."

"...Mr. Jia, Mr. Wang. Mr. Jia, the emperor has seen your greetings and is about to allow you to come to see him! Will you please come with our family?"

Phew, good luck.

Jia Zheng hurriedly smiled at the surprised Wang Ziteng, followed the footsteps of the visitor, and went to meet the emperor.

His guess was very accurate.

Although the emperor is on the throne, with the Supreme Emperor on top, his power is limited, and his life is naturally boring.

Nowadays, the capital no longer needs Wang Ziteng to guard the city with heavy troops, but the emperor still summons Wang Ziteng from time to time, which shows that there is really no one left.

Jia Zheng had always been honest before and never took an extra step. He relied on the Supreme Emperor to rise to power, and he was never close to the emperor.

With this sudden visit, the emperor will definitely be curious about what he is going to do.

"My lord, Jia Zheng pays my respects. Long live our emperor."

Jia Zhengxing bowed to see him, and when the emperor called him, he stood up honestly.

"Ai Qing, what can I do to see you?"

The emperor's eyes were curious. He pointed to the stone bench in front of him and asked Jia Zheng to sit down.

There was a table of incomplete chess in front of him, and it looked like the emperor had won.

Could it be that it was Wang Ziteng who was playing chess with the emperor just now? Sure enough, "Jane is in the emperor's heart."

"Wei Chen is overjoyed to have a new member of his family. He came here to see the emperor to please him."

Jia Zheng looked at his nose with his eyes and his mouth with his nose, and he still spoke in a precise manner.

But after hearing this, the emperor's face became a little unsubtle.

Good guy, if you ask me more carefully, it's not even the first wife who gave birth to her, and the look on her face is even more subtle.

Come to him to show off your child? Don’t you know how difficult it is for royal heirs? !

"Haha, my dear, are you here to ask for a reward? If you cherish your youngest son so much, and go beyond your legitimate son, aren't you afraid of displeasing your old lady? When your legitimate son Baoyu was born, you didn't even come to invite me!"

Why didn't I know before that Jia Zheng was so thick-skinned that he even bore a son for a concubine to seek reward? Are they so close to each other?

"I don't dare. I just have something happy at home and don't know who to talk to, so I have to come to your Majesty."

ah? How presumptuous! If you are happy, come and show off in front of me? Aren't you afraid that if I am unhappy, your family's happy event will turn into a funeral?

But just can't.

The emperor held back his anger, threw away the chess piece, and answered stiffly.

"Have you chosen a name yet? But it's still like your second son, who calls you names after you give him a nickname?"

"not yet."

Jia Zheng said with an embarrassment: "I originally wanted to give him a ring, but with my family name..."

"Jia Huan? The word "Huan" is not bad, ah~ hahaha, how can it be calculated like this?"

The emperor had not thought of it at first, but after Jia Zheng reminded him, he realized that this homophonic sound was a family problem.

He guessed the reason why Jia Zheng wanted to take the ring. The ring also has the same homophonic sound, in order to commemorate the missing Jia Zhu, right?

Rather, he has a fatherly heart.

The Jia family is different from other families in that they have been close to the royal family for many years. The fact that the Jia family can produce two princes is also due to royal favor.

After all, no one's family is like this. Two brothers from the same family have the same title of Duke.

Therefore, although Jia Zheng was a minor official of the fifth rank, the emperor also paid great attention to it. The emperor's heart was clear about the background of his family's personnel.

Although Jia Zhu was young back then, he was too smart and got into a situation that he couldn't enter. As a result, he lost his life, brought trouble to Rongguo Mansion, and was despised by him.

The emperor really didn't expect that a man as upright as Jia Zheng would use his children to play tricks on him.

Ring also means asking for forgiveness and forgiveness. This is playing tricks on the younger son's name!
