After the Rebirth of the Red Chamber

Seeing the two young masters picking noodles but not putting them into their mouths for a long time, Zhang Gui felt that the atmosphere was a little tense, so he couldn't help breaking it up: "Master, Mr. Niu, this noodle soup has to be eaten while it's hot, otherwise it will be mushy. "

He doesn't understand the affairs between the master and the wife, but it is his responsibility to take care of the master's food and daily life, even without his wife's thousands of reminders before he left, he never dared to slack off.

Niu Ben is upright to the end, and always firmly believes that as long as he is glorious and cherishes himself, even if there are thousands of filth, he will never want to touch him.

"Never mind him," Niu Ben persuaded with a smile, "Since it's such a coincidence, let's take it as a coincidence. Come, eat noodles, eat noodles, Zhang Gui finally brought them back, isn't it a pity to be confused?" ?”

"That's right, it's better for elder brother to take it easy." Jia Jing was relieved by his words, and turned to Zhang Gui and said, "Brother, don't worry about me, it won't be too late to clean it up tomorrow morning."

Zhang Gui said with a smile: "Master, you can eat first, and the younger one will go outside and watch." After speaking, he left the tent, fearing that someone would come and disturb the master's cleanliness.

Simply put, the events of the night were over, everything went on as usual in the second half of the night, and nothing happened.

In the next half month, Jia Jing completely let go of his hands and feet, and led a group of followers, but vigorously harmed the mountains and forests, driving the animals on Nanshan to the ground!

But the receipt is also very impressive.

His followers are all veterans who have retired from the battlefield. Due to their disabilities, they can no longer go to the battlefield. Jia Daihua couldn't bear that they would not end in the future, so he recruited them as guards.

In order to resettle these veterans, he also made the decision, splitting the money and demobilizing several families with children.

It is also because of this that these veterans and their children have not been able to deal with each other, which caused Jia Daihua quite a headache.

But in Jia Jing's view, it's better if they don't deal with it!

After these veterans marry wives and have children, they will gradually become another indispensable force in the Ningguo Mansion, and their loyalty is not lower than that of family and children.

If it is used well, it can greatly prevent family members from uniting to deceive the upper and lower.

He used this move in his previous life.

It's a pity that his son Jia Zhen didn't learn half of his methods, which made these people have no place to be squeezed by their children.

In the blink of an eye, half a month has passed, and the hunting in Nanshan is about to end.

The saint ordered people to count the prey of these noble children, and ranked the top three.

Relying on the strength of his entourage, Jia Jing narrowly squeezed into the third place.

The first one is the nephew of Empress Yuan, whose surname is Yu, and his first name is Zhiyan; the second one is Chen Gui, the son of Duke Qi.

Yu Zhiyan is 25 and six years old, with a fair complexion and a very popular two-stroke moustache, mature and stable.

As early as when he was 16 years old, the saint rewarded him as the missing son of the Dragon Forbidden Captain.

In his early twenties, he was promoted to be the second-class bodyguard in front of the imperial court, commonly known as the second-class shrimp.

The second-class shrimp is only the fourth-rank, but looking at the entire Great Xia Dynasty, how many of them reached the fourth-rank at the age of 20?

It can be seen from this that the saint has a deep affection for his original wife.

As for Chen Gui, although he is also a descendant of the Four Kings and Eight Dukes, he is not on the same level as Jia Jing and others.

In fact, although the four princes and eight princes are said to be in the same spirit, they are only at critical moments. On weekdays, they each have their own little thoughts and small calculations.

It's like Jia Jing and Niu Ben are inseparable friends, but they are just nodding friends with Chen Gui, and they all see the meaning of the previous generation.

Both Jia Daihua and Zhen Guogong are die-hard royalists, but Qi Guogong has always been somewhat ambiguous towards the prince because his cousin is a noble concubine.

The top three are not too old, Yu Zhiyan is 26, Chen Gui is 21, and the third Jia Jing is only 17 years old.

The sage was in a good mood, and he said that Da Xia had successors, so he specially summoned the three of them to go and personally encouraged them.

Jia Jing was naturally very excited about this.

But he cares more about another thing:

——By the way, saint, are you still going to sue my father?

Perhaps Jia Jing's eyes were too warm and straightforward, the saint couldn't help laughing, and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I mean what I say."

Just as Jia Jing breathed a sigh of relief, he found that many people's eyes were already on him.

His expression froze, the sage's move must have attracted a lot of attention in the public, and his father would definitely ask him what happened.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the sage sadly: the sage has deep routines, he can't play with it, and can't afford to provoke him!

The sage smiled at him, and said brightly: There is nothing wrong, the old man did it on purpose.

Now, Jia Jing looked at the saint almost accusingly.

The saint is not guilty at all, because he has prepared a big gift for Jia Jing as compensation, which is only thick and not thin.

The sage first praised Yu Zhi, saying that he had done a good job in these years, and that the last time he asked for an order to release it, he was sure.

Then, he asked Chen Gui and Jia Jing: "You guys are not too young, can you fill in the gaps?"

Chen Gui replied: "No."

Jia Jing, on the other hand, maintained his usual personality, and replied rather embarrassedly: "My father thinks that the young minister is not good at martial arts, and he is afraid that the young minister will lower the level of our Daxia military officer, so he has never mentioned this matter."

At this time, Jia Daihua was standing next to the sage, and when he heard the words, he blew his beard and stared at him, reminding him that the prelude was right and he should be more careful when speaking.

Jia Jingquan pretended not to see it.

The sage saw it, and said to Jia Daihua angrily, "It's only natural for a child to think of serving the country in his heart. Don't be too harsh on Daihua."

Jia Daihua immediately expressed his dislike for his son: "The sage doesn't know something. When he was a child, this kid thought reading wasted his brain and clamored to learn martial arts. I was so troubled by him that I had no choice but to agree. Who knows, he is really good at martial arts. He has limited talent, and after ten years of study, he hasn't learned much, but he has slipped through the "Seven Books of Martial Arts". From Yichen's point of view, this villain is the reincarnation of Zhao Kuo!"

Including the saint, the surrounding circle of people couldn't help but twitch their mouths.

——Lord Jia, if you say that your son should not look so complacent when he has mastered the "Seven Books of Martial Arts", your words will be very convincing.

Jia Daihua's last sentence "Zhao Kuo is reborn" seems to be to belittle Jia Jing, but if you think about it carefully, you will understand that he is still showing off his baby in disguise.

Jia Jing has never been on the battlefield at all, and has no actual combat experience. "Zhao Kuo is reborn" has greatly praised him.

The sage has learned a lesson. In the past, he only heard occasional complaints from his subordinates that Jia Daihua is a "hysterical madman", but today is the first time he has witnessed it with his own eyes.

"Never mind, whatever," the sage said rather helplessly, "I will be the master today, fill in the vacancies of third-class guards for Chen Gui and Jia Jing, and let them work harder so that they can serve the country well in the future. Share your worries for me."

Jia Daihua and Qi Guogong Chen Qi rushed out and took their son together to express their gratitude: "Thanks for the kindness of the sage."

"Father, my son has an unfeeling request." The third prince spoke suddenly, which gave Jia Jing an ominous premonition.

The sage asked kindly: "What's the matter with the emperor?"

At this time, the saint was still a loving father, although he was not as obedient to the other princes as he was to the prince, but he was still very good.

This is probably because when he was young, the late emperor fought for years and rarely accompanied him.

The third prince glanced at Jia Jing and said with a smile: "My father doesn't know something. My son and Mr. Jia are very close, and there is just a lack of a third-class guard in the palace. Please ask my father to take care of my son and send Jia's guard Let's arrange it in the son's palace."

Jia Jing lowered his eyes, his complexion changed slightly.

Jia Jing naturally didn't want to board the ship that was destined to sink as the third prince.

But this matter can't be decided by himself, it has to look at the meaning of the saint.

The sage's eyes flashed, and he immediately smiled "haha" as if nothing had happened: "You are a step too late."

The third prince's face changed, and his smile was a bit forced: "Father means..."

The saint said: "The crown prince told me a few days ago that he wanted Jia Jing to go to the East Palace, and I have already agreed to him."

"So it is."

The third prince's expression was ferocious for a moment, but he quickly covered it up. He slightly bowed his hands to the prince, and said regretfully, "Since His Royal Highness is the one who fell in love with you first, I will naturally not take the favor of others."

The prince nodded slightly reservedly, without saying a word.

This is also very arrogant, but none of the people present is absolutely wrong.

Because the prince's attitude towards his younger brothers has always been like this, even the sage didn't say anything, so how could the ministers have the right to speak?

The sage comforted the third prince: "Although Jia Jing can't give it to you, Chen Gui's skills are superior to Jia Jing's. Don't you lack a third-class bodyguard? I will make the decision and give you Chen Gui."

This seems to be impartial, but anyone who knows the inside story is clear in his heart: Chen Gui is originally the third prince's cousin, and the Duke of Qi's mansion is also the third prince's natural ally.To the third prince, winning Chen Gui and winning Jia Jing is like a world of difference.

But he had no choice but to accept the saint's arrangement.

It's just that in my heart, I feel even more resentful towards the prince.

——They are all the sons of the emperor, why should you take all the benefits?
