Red Mansion: My comprehension is beyond belief, and I have established the Immortal Dynasty!

On December 16, the winter of the fourth year of Yongping, the capital was covered with snow.

A group of people came out of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, with drums and music playing, and the Jinyi Army cleaning the streets, and went straight to Ningrong Street.

The Jia family, who had received the news early, opened the main door and set up the table. Jia She, Jia Zheng and others had already stood by, all with serious faces.

"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims:"Now that a son of the Jia family has served the country, I am very pleased. I hereby appoint Jia Xuan as the Dragon Guard Captain, commanding 3,000 Dragon Guards, and grant him 3,000 Ujumchin horses." Dai Quan, the Minister of

Internal Affairs of the Daming Palace, raised the imperial edict with both hands, faced the people of the Jia Mansion, and read aloud:

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The Jia family watched Jia Xuan take the imperial edict, with different expressions.

Only Jia Xuan looked calm, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

‘It's really extraordinary!

Dai Quan, the internal minister of the Daming Palace, who had been watching Jia Xuan, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He had seen many noble children in the capital, but Jia Xuan was the only one who could remain calm and composed in the face of adversity when receiving an imperial decree at the age of sixteen.

"Longxiang Commander"

"The Emperor Taishang has issued an order to grant 100,000 taels of gold and to allow Xishan to be the garrison of the Dragon Guard."

At this time, Dai Quan added kindly:

"Oh?"

Jia Xuan raised his eyebrows, thought about it for a moment, and simply agreed:"Please go back and report to the emperor."

"The Jia family has served the country for generations. This time, they rebuilt the Longxiang Guard. Xuan Ding fought bloody battles for Da Jing and guarded the border."

"Very good!"

Hearing this, Dai Quan nodded with satisfaction, and then returned to the palace with a group of palace guards and eunuchs.

Only ten red-painted rosewood boxes were left, and there was a tray on which the official uniform, token, and so on of Captain Longxiang were placed.

Jia She, Jia Zhen and others in the hall had already had red eyes with envy. One hundred thousand taels of gold, according to the current market price, is equivalent to one million taels of silver. The reward from the emperor is not small.

However, Jia Xuan ignored them at all, raised his hand, and ordered:"Come on, carry the things to the yard"

"Yes."

Without saying a word, the sword-wielding attendants carried away all the boxes in the hall, leaving the Jia family members staring at the

"Second Brother"

"look...."

Jia Zhen wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Jia Xuan.

"The Dragon Guard is the blade of the Jia family, and even more so the shield of the Jia family. We will never allow anyone to destroy it."

"My father has already made it clear that if anyone in the two houses does not cooperate, they can open the ancestral temple."

""Ahem!"

Jia Zhen almost choked to death with his saliva. He smiled awkwardly and said,"What are you talking about, second brother? I will ask someone to clean up the martial arts field and the backyard tomorrow."

"Don't worry, I will personally supervise the affairs of the martial arts hall."

"The 150,000 taels of silver were in the treasury and could be picked up at any time."

""Xuan'er."

Jia She and Jia Zheng on the side also said:"The three hundred thousand taels of silver from the West Palace were all sent by Lian'er."

"If you need any help, please tell Lian Ge'er to do it. Don't hesitate."

"........"

Jia Lian has a sad face. He has to do all the dirty and tiring work. How can he live like this?

"There is one thing that needs to be done by Brother Lian."

"Although His Majesty has allocated 3,000 Ujumchin horses, it is only a drop in the bucket for the establishment of the Dragon Guard."

"I also need 6,000 top-quality war horses and at least 2,000 pack horses."

"If this matter is done properly, the sixth-rank provincial governor title on Brother Lian can be removed."

"I can't guarantee anything else, but a cavalry captain is no problem."

Glancing at Jia Lian, Jia Xuan said calmly

"Don’t worry, Brother Xuan!"

"Leave this matter to me. Six thousand Ujumchin horses and two thousand pack horses must arrive in Beijing within half a month."

Jia Lian's face brightened, and he patted his chest to promise.

Dajing had been at war for years, and the treasury was in deficit. When the emperor was in power, he started to donate money to become an official. Donating money could get you an official position, a tribute student, a student of supervision, etc. Of course, this was just a symbol of honor and status, and did not have real power. The highest you could get was the fourth rank.

The Jia family was rich, but Jia She was not willing to spend more money. He only donated a sixth-rank state governor to Jia Lian.

The cavalry captain was different. It was a personal title. Only military merit could be conferred. The rank was equivalent to the fifth rank. You could wear a sword and have ten followers. It could also be passed down to the next generation. How could Jia Lian not be excited?

"Second Uncle"

"I...."

Jia Rong couldn't help himself either, and looked at Jia Xuan pitifully.

The grace of a gentleman will be cut off after five generations. According to the imperial system, one must have military merit to inherit the title. Those without military merit can only inherit it for three generations at most. Unless the emperor is so generous that he grants him the privilege of inheriting it for five generations, he will be stripped of his title.

The title of Ningguo Mansion has been passed down from Jia Yan, Duke of Ningguo, to the present day, through Jia Jing, Jia Zhen, and now to Jia Rong. Nothing is left.

"There is an iron ore in Sindhu that can be smelted into a steel ingot that looks like a big iron ball through a special process. It is called Wootz steel."

"I need you to purchase at least 5,000 kilos. The more the better."

"Can you do it?"

Staring at Jia Rong, Jia Xuan said in a deep voice.

Among all the people in the Jia family, Jia Rong's appearance is not bad, with a delicate face, a handsome figure, a light fur coat, a precious belt, and beautiful clothes and crowns. It's a pity that he lacks masculinity.

""Sindhu."

Jia Rong was a little hesitant.

"Damn evil"

"Your uncle thinks highly of you and has given you important tasks, but you keep shirking your responsibilities. Do you want to be punished by the family law?

Seeing this, Jia Zhen's eyes showed anger and he shouted loudly.

This was exactly what happened. Jia Rong became more and more frightened and dared not say a word.

"Brother Xuan, this is easy."

"I personally wrote a letter to the Prince of Nan'an"

"The Sindhu can be transported by land to Yunnan, and then go north via the Yangtze River and the Grand Canal. It will be enough to reach the capital within ten months."

Jia She suddenly spoke up and intercepted this opportunity, which made Jia Zhen and his son a little confused.

"In this case, I will leave this matter to Uncle She."

Looking at Jia She deeply, Jia Xuan said

""Okay."

Jia She's old face immediately showed a smile.

The reason why he was willing to personally work for Jia Xuan was precisely because he saw Jia Xuan's future.

The two people in the palace had issued an order, which showed that Jia Xuan would definitely become the leader of the Jia family in the future. With the help of Jia Xuan's power, it was not impossible for Jia She to take back the main hall of Rongguo Mansion!
