Of the four major families, the Xue family fell first, and the Wang family also fell with Wang Ziteng's dismissal.Jia Hu decided that after his coronation ceremony was over, he would go to the south of the Yangtze River, and it was the Zhen family's turn.

The Li family sent someone to deliver the letter first, and the Li family will arrive today.After Jia Hu prepared everything in Li's residence, he went out of the city to wait.

Sure enough, the long journey from the northwest to the capital was very tossing, and even the youngest Li Qin of the Li family was a little depressed.

Fortunately, Jia Hu had already prepared everything, so after they arrived, they just had to take a good rest and didn't have to worry too much.The Li family rested for half a day before recovering a little bit. Father Li often runs the business, which is fine, but mother Li and Li Yao suffered a little.

In the evening, after the family has finished their meals, they gather together to have a good talk.

"Xiu'er, last time you wrote a letter saying that you were going to hold a crown ceremony in Li's residence?" Li's father asked, "Since you have recognized your family, can they agree? Thinking about my father, you are now a second-rank official, but can You can’t be honest. I discussed it with your mother, we don’t earn any fame, you don’t have to pay too much attention to our side, if it’s held over there, we’ll go over there to attend your coming-of-age ceremony.”

Mother Li also nodded when she heard the words, "Yes, Xiu'er, don't be too embarrassing."

When Jia Hu heard this, she was very moved. Compared with the other side who was always thinking about how to get benefits from him, the Li family seemed to be the real relatives with him.

"Brother, sister knows that you have been very capable since you were a child. My sister doesn't know anything about outside things. My sister trusts you."

Jia Hu smiled, "It's not that serious. The emperor also said that I was raised by the Li family. Even he would not force me to go back to the Jia family, let alone someone else. Now, although I am the Minister of the Household Department, I am a servant from the official to the slave. The second grade, but I didn’t take a real job in the Ministry of Accounts, and I don’t usually work in the Ministry of Accounts. My crown ceremony was proposed by Mr. Wu. He wrote and said that he would come over. I guess there are still ten or so days left. He'll be there."

"Well, didn't you say that you bought a new house a few days ago, that it is bigger than this one? I think it will be your servant's mansion there, and the crowning ceremony will be held there. Those in the inner courtyard will be handed over to your mother. Go do it." Father Li said, he knew that his wife was raised as a clan wife at the beginning, if not for the great changes later, he, a small businessman, would not be qualified to marry her.

On the day of Jia Hu's crowning ceremony, although Jia's mother scolded Jia Hu for being unfilial at home the day before, as the most promising junior in the Jia family, Jia's mother and the second bedroom of the eldest room arrived at the Shilang's mansion early in the morning.

Mr. Wu, invited by Jia Hu as the guest of honor, was supposed to be the fifth prince, but was cut off by Qi Hengyi.In the inner courtyard, Jia's mother and family friends of the Jia family sat together, while Li's mother entertained the family members of the adults in Jia Hu's court.

"This brother Hu is really ignorant. I originally asked the prince to be his official guest, but he said that he had agreed with his teacher and his teacher would be the one. How could he just find someone to teach such an important position? What about sir." Mother Jia and the loyal old concubine were talking, "He grew up in such a barren place in the northwest and was brought up by a woman in a small place. I can't discipline him too."

"In this way, your Rongguo Mansion will be inherited by him in the future, and the future is worrying." The loyal old concubine said, "I said that the old Duke didn't know what to think, and he should have let the second room come to attack the nobles in the first place."

"Yes, my second son is much more sensible, but it's a pity that he has an older brother in front of him."

Listening to what they said, Mrs. Wang was very happy that the old lady was really looking for them, but there are so many official wives here, it is still inappropriate to say these things.The old lady is used to being flattered at home, and has forgotten the prudence of her youth.

Mother Jia was really upset that Jia Hu didn't hold the crowning ceremony in Rongguo Mansion. Rongguo Mansion was slowly declining. If Jia Hu couldn't lead Jia Zhu and his generation to walk together, the future status of Rongguo Mansion would be worrying.

As soon as Li's mother obeyed everyone's rules, the imperial wives who came to participate were very impressed. They had heard a lot of rumors about Jia Hu's upbringing. The newly-appointed servant is a bit of a face.Unexpectedly, all the rules and regulations here are very respectable, and I don't know why the rumors about Jia Shilang's embarrassment spread.Thinking about being able to pass the exam, how could there be no way of Confucius and Mencius? It really shouldn't be heard.

On a day like today, Jia Amnesty and Li's father, Li Ge, served as hostesses in the outer courtyard to greet guests. Since Jia Zheng was used to being in charge of the Rongguo Mansion, he also habitually greeted guests today. Everyone greeted him politely, and then Chatting with colleagues or Li Ge and Jia She, Jia Zheng had no choice but to take Jia Zhu to sit with some old relatives.

Jia Hu felt dizzy when he saw the tray in Qi Hengyi's hand, so he asked the governor to comb his hair and change his clothes, but he didn't know if he would.

Seeing Qi Hengyi picked up the clothes, Jia Hu quickly stood up, "I'll just do it myself, this is just a formality, don't take it so seriously."

As he said that he was about to take the gown, Qi Hengyi sideways avoided, "Let me do it, the crowning ceremony is a very important moment in life."

Seeing Qi Hengyi's insistence, Jia Hu stopped being hypocritical, quickly took off his coat, put on only his jacket, and opened his hands. After waiting for a long time, he didn't see Qi Hengyi move.

Jia Hu patted Qi Hengyi's arm, looked up at Qi Hengyi, and realized that Qi Hengyi had been staring at him with strange eyes.

"Brother Qi? What's wrong with you?"

Qi Hengyi, who was patted for a moment, came back to his senses, "Huh? It's nothing, I was thinking about something just now. Come on, change your clothes."

Father Li was not short of money, even if the Rongguo Mansion didn't give anything, the crowning ceremony was very successful, even the Rongguo Mansion might not be able to invite all the guests who came for Jia Hu's sake.

Jia Hu got to the prepared mat and knelt down.Qi Hengyi was standing beside the steps with his top hat in his hand. Mr. Wu went down the steps, took his hat and put it in front of Jia Hu, and blessed him, "Jiyue Lingchen, Naishen'erfu, Jin'er Weiyi, Shushunde, Meishou Yongnian, enjoy Hufu." Note (1)

After the three procedures were completed, Mr. Wu sang three paragraphs of blessings, and then said, "Xiu'er, today I will choose the word "He'an" for you, in order to wish you peace and well-being."

"Thank you teacher, students must abide by the teacher's teachings."

Seeing his eldest son grow up, Jia She thought that he was sacrificing himself to save his wife and children when he thought of all these years of neglect.In fact, who did he protect?
