Jia Zheng Wucai in the Red Chamber

Chapter 12 The Outcast Overlord

Unlike turning into a bodhisattva in the future and restraining her thoughts, Mrs. Wang is now quite satisfied.With a pair of sons and daughters by her side, and a husband who has not yet shown his "true talent and learning", and who is in control of the housekeeper, it can be described as perfect, and he is also the envy of all the wives.Therefore, seeing that "Jia Zheng" didn't answer, he bluntly confessed the reason: "You also know that my eldest brother is almost the same as my uncle, and he also entered Beizhen Fusi together last night. Now my father hates iron but not steel, but we can't." Leave it alone. Does the master have any connections, check it up and down, or ask the uncle?"

"En." Jia Zheng nodded and said yes, then looked sideways at Mrs. Wang, and said bluntly: "Whatever happens in the future, just tell me directly. It could be like this tonight."

Mrs. Wang's face turned red, she stared at Jia Zheng, and called softly: "Master reads;."

Although Mrs. Wang is rare and tender, Jia Zheng is puzzled and said: "I will read the law books first, and then I will ask Jia tomorrow..." After a pause, Jia Zheng bit his tongue and changed his name: "Go and ask the elder brother. Now, you go to rest. Wen Qing, take the wife back to the room."

Mrs. Wang: "..."

Mrs. Wang really wanted to turn around and shake her sleeves to leave, but after listening to Jia Zheng's answer, she remembered that if this matter was done, no matter what her father thought, her status in the Wang family would be invisible.Compared with the second daughter who married into a lowly businessman, she is more reliable as the daughter-in-law of a state official.A trace of pride flashed in her heart, Madam Wang bent down to express her gratitude: "Thank you, master."

After expressing her thanks, Mrs. Wang left Shi Shiran.

Here, Jia Zheng flipped through legal classics and became more and more interested in the so-called Jin Dynasty.The background reflected in the red building has always been a hot topic in the study of red studies, and he has heard a thing or two about it.It is nothing more than a reflection of the three dynasties of Kang, Yong and Qian.

But now according to his observations, the background of this dynasty is completely a hodgepodge of Ming and Qing Dynasties.The reason for the founding of this dynasty is similar to that of the Ming Dynasty. They were all dissatisfied with the tyrannical regime of the Yuan Dynasty, and people with lofty ideals rose up.

Except for the fact that he was kind to the founder of the country, the rest of the dynasty’s □ Situ Gou and Zhu Yuanzhang had similar fortunes and political reforms.

Today's Emperor Wudi's experience as emperor is the combination of Emperor Wudi Liu Che and Kangxi.He ascended the throne at a young age, took advantage of the power of his cousin's family, and personally conquered Wala, beat Japanese pirates three times, closed the sea, rectified salt and iron, and collected coinage rights from the royal family.Culturally respected the way of Confucius and Mencius in the pre-Qin period, suppressed the "preserving the principles of nature and destroying human desires" that prevailed in the late period of the previous dynasty, advocated remarriage and remarriage of women, and agreed to restore the policy of female households.

Of course, the most consistent thing is that Emperor Wu was obsessed with Taoism in his later years, and the prince was eventually abolished because of witchcraft.Before he was eventually abolished and killed, this prince combined the tragic points of the four major tragedies: the prince was born and died, and his mother was swaddling the prince; but committed suicide.

Thinking of the prince's ups and downs, Jia Zheng had a vague understanding of Jia She, who was said to be the prince's youngest companion.At least Jia Amnesty was definitely swayed in some respects.

Jia She, who was still asleep, sneezed loudly.

===

Jia Zheng eagerly absorbed background knowledge.When it was dawn, I put two young leaves on myself to refresh myself and relieve fatigue, and then I did a set of Tai Chi, and followed the rules to go morning and evening.

Xiaoniao, who never expected to be able to develop the effect of a mask, felt helpless about her own characterization. She looked greedily at Jia Amnesty who also came to pay her respects. She really wanted to cause trouble for her master, but it was just thinking about it. That's all.

As an intelligent ability, it also knows the horror of being in an unfamiliar environment.So, the best jade pendant, just look at (づ ̄3 ̄)づ╭~

Jia Amnesty couldn't help turning his head around, he always felt that someone was staring at him from behind, but before he could turn around, the little maids in the room all covered their faces, as if they were treating him like a jackal.

Jia Amnesty: "..."

Jia Shishi: "..."

"You scoundrel," Jia Shishi cursed casually, "recently, let me settle down and be more honest. After a while, I'll ask someone to watch you. You should also marry a relative and take care of you." Good to teach Lian'er."

"But it's up to my wife to make the decision." As he was about to renew his strings, Jia She expected that he didn't have much resistance when someone mentioned it. He just smiled and said a few requests: "Madam, don't ask for anything else, you must be obedient and very obedient !"

The original partner is straightforward and fine, even if they pinch each other's arms and make a fuss occasionally when they get angry, they can just laugh it off.But now that there is a son in front of her, the continuation must first be obedient, not like the common stepmother in the backyard, either secretly deducting the expenses of the original offspring, or suppressing them to prevent them from becoming talented, or flattering them to raise them to waste.

When Jia Shishi heard the words, he didn't answer, but said that it was almost time, and urged "Jia Zheng" to go to court.

Naturally, Jia Amnesty was sent to court, and he bid farewell and left Jia's mother's yard.As a general with only a false title, he has already greeted the small official of the Ministry of War, and signed for him three times for a tael of silver, one settlement every month.

"Brother, please stay." Jia Zheng stepped forward, and just said "Wang Zisheng" before Jia She didn't care about it: "The fire at the city gate will only affect the fish in the pond, and it will be fine after it is closed for a day or two."

After Jia Amnesty finished speaking, he patted Jia Zheng's shoulder with a half-smile, and said, "Second brother, that's not bad. I used to pretend to be contemptuous of dirty relationships, but now I'm not only thinking about making friends with the Yue family, but also thinking about the crux of the matter. figure……"

Seeing Jia Amnesty pointing at himself without shame, with the look of "my uncle is very important", Jia Zheng just shook his sleeves and left.

"Crossing the river and tearing down the bridge!" Jia She turned his head angrily and said to the left and right: "I'm going to sue Kangkang, and I'll lock up Prince Sheng for another three days, and the second child is dying of anxiety, it's not a big deal!"

The servant lowered his eyes silently.

"Let's go, find Kangkang for tea..." Jia She's words froze, thinking of Hou Xiaokang, who was said to be smilingly taking longan, plums and other items, he couldn't help shaking goosebumps, always feeling that he might be beaten up by a sack, so his expression With a trace of caution, he said: "Prepare the horse, I'm going to the Qing Temple outside the city to offer incense, and ask the Bodhisattva to bless you."

"Yes."

Jia Amnesty went to pray to the gods and worship Buddha, and here Jia Zheng returned to the Ministry of Industry to cancel his vacation, and started a day of ancient civil servants diligently.

Although it is only a small junior member of the fifth rank Yuanwailang, this official position is also relative.For Jia Zheng, who had called Chaopin Guogong his uncle since childhood, when he thought about Jia She, a first-rank general, he felt that this official position was not enough.But for the poor family's children, this may be the pinnacle of life from the fifth rank.After all, you have wasted your whole life, and you are still just a ninth-rank civil servant.

Jia Zheng looked at his two nominal clerks who assisted him. One had white hair, and his complexion seemed to be in his sixties, holding the documents in his hands tremblingly, and the other was nearly middle-aged, holding With a somewhat fat beer belly, his eyes narrowed, revealing the "official prestige" of a silk fox pretending to be a tiger.

However, just these two Jia Zheng never paid much attention to them, even the little people who only remembered one surname, easily dismissed Jia Zheng.

As usual, Pang Min put the approved documents on the table of "Jia Zheng", and said casually: "This is the repair situation of the bridges in the capital this month. Mr. Jia, please sign it. Mr. Yuan is still in a hurry to use it."

"Oh?" Jia Zheng raised his eyebrows, scanning ten lines at a glance.

Jia Zheng, a member of Wailang, belongs to the River Defense Department of the Dushui Qingli Division, in charge of auditing, estimating and selling the funds for river courses, seawalls, river defenses, ditches, water conservancy, bridges, and road projects.Now it is winter, the weather is cold, the rivers are easy to be blocked, and bridges are often damaged.It needs to be repaired, especially Jia Zheng was assigned to be in charge of the Zhili area.

There are many nobles in the imperial city, and this infrastructure is usually not noticed, but if something goes wrong, it will be a matter of losing the official.

Therefore, in the past, no one liked to take over the affairs of the imperial city. When Jia Zheng, who was relying on his father's legacy, arrived, he looked like he didn't know how much the price was, and almost everyone was very happy.

"A lot of bridges have collapsed this month." Jia Zheng asked.

Seeing that "Jia Zheng" was not looking forward to the past, and did not hold the pen for a long time, Pang Min's complexion darkened, and his expression was indifferent: "Master Jia, you are really not in charge of the family, and you don't know how expensive the firewood is. Since the beginning of winter this year, the cold has been worse than in previous years. , Many poor people have froze to death, the river is naturally frozen severely, we sent corvée to investigate, how can we not waste time and effort?"

After finishing speaking, Pang Min saw that "Jia Zheng" didn't respond, and muttered, "I told you that you, young master, don't understand."

Jia Zheng raised his eyes and smiled at Pang Min when he heard that, "Thank you, I'm just the second young master."

Pang Min: "..."
