The Pearl of the Prosperous Age of Red Mansions

I reminded myself to be cautious, and when I was on duty in the palace, I also began to think about who could take over my current position-according to the rules, unless the emperor wanted to parachute someone from other places, otherwise the emperor I will ask him for a candidate for recommendation, and these can't be thought of on the spur of the moment.

At home, Deng Lianting learned the rules very quickly, and the two nuns in the palace praised her again and again. After all, Deng Lianting will be the concubine of the fifteenth prince in the future, and the fifteenth prince will be the emperor's very beloved son. This marriage is still the queen mother. The master himself, the nuns in the palace are all good people, strict but not difficult, even after Deng Lianting's rules were ready to be taught, they turned a blind eye to let her relax for a while.

It is said to be leisure, but in fact it is just a few less hours every day to practice those boring rules, but in this way, cousins ​​like Deng Lianting and Yuan Chun have more time to communicate, during which time they still talk in Mother Jia's room. Met a couple of cousins ​​a few times.

Because of Jia Zhu's suggestion, the boys in the family left the inner courtyard when they were eight years old and had their own independent courtyard outside. Therefore, Deng Lianting and his cousins ​​did not see each other very often. Among these cousins, except for Jia Lian who was a little younger Except for the taller ones, the others are all little kids, there is nothing to be taboo about, and the boys are also very curious about this cousin who is not as beautiful as his sister-in-law, but has a very comfortable feeling on her body.

Jia Lian even made a bold statement, saying that in the future when looking for a daughter-in-law, she must be as gentle as sister Deng. Jia Zhu almost spit out her tea after listening to it. Do you like gentle ones?I remember that Jia Lian's daughter-in-law in the previous life was called Feng Lazi, but she had nothing to do with gentleness.

The relationship between my family and the Wang family has become like this in this life. The old masters of the Wang family have passed on family letters to let Wang Ziteng take the whole family back to his hometown in Jinling. I think Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng should be out of play in this life, but right now the two children are still in love with each other. Xiao, during these years, it is still uncertain what will happen, and I can't make a death sentence.

Jia Zhu looked at Jia Lian, who was still innocent and innocent, and murmured in her heart, she still can't see the boy's flirtatious attitude, so she doesn't know if she will grow up in the future, but in this life, with Mrs. Hu as a mother, Jia Lian No matter what, you can't end up as a nasty bastard.

Jia Lian's rhetoric, because he was still young, not only did not offend the adults, but made Jia's mother smile so hard that her eyes narrowed. Deng Lianting felt a little embarrassed, but there was nothing lewd in Jia Lian's big black eyes. , the sparkling is completely sincere, and the embarrassment will disappear, childish words, not to mention which woman doesn't like to be praised?

On the contrary, Na Ren Tuoya looked at Jia Lian, thinking that this kid's speech was not pleasant, um, when it's time to practice martial arts, watch her use a whip to drive him all over the place!

Jia Lian only felt a cool breeze on the back of her neck, and glanced at Na Ren Tuoya, who seemed to be lifeless, with a guilty conscience, and secretly groaned in her heart. She was so busy telling the truth that she forgot that the sister-in-law present was not a gentle master!

Time flies, during this period of time, Shi Jinwen arranged a banquet outside and Jia Zhu went there. This time Shi Jinwen was not eccentric, but he was very warm to Jia Zhu. He also talked a lot about how to be an official, and Jia Zhu heard it. Then the Wang family returned to Jinling, and Jia Zhu also went to see him off. Seeing that his uncle was getting old, he couldn't stop telling Jia Zhu to help find Wang Ren's murderer before he left. Jia Zhu agreed. After coming down, he sighed in his heart. After so long, no clues could be found. Wang Ren's death is doomed to be fruitless.

When it was time for the wedding, the Jia family used to do all the weddings, and Jia Zhu also married the princess before, but this time she was marrying the princess. Naturally, it was different, and everyone was busy. Yes, although Na Ren Tuoya is a daughter-in-law, she is a layman. In the end, Mrs. Hu came out with a big belly to preside over the affairs. Even though she has a big belly now, she is quite energetic, but Jia Lian and Jia Cong are still very nervous, mother , like a follower.

The guests coming and going are more lively than the time when Jia Zhu got married. The fifteenth prince does not have his own mansion yet. This time, he sent his wife to the palace. This shed can never be placed in the Forbidden City, so it is true that both the husband’s family and the mother’s family are together. Jia's mansion became lively.

They didn't have to be idle for several days, until the bride was welcomed away by Xiao Yuan riding a tall horse, Jia's mansion was really lively all night, and after three days, they returned home to celebrate again, and then it really stopped. One day, Jia Zhu was working in the palace, thinking about when he would be transferred, when the little eunuch who delivered the decree from last time came again.

"Lord Jia, the emperor has ordered you to be summoned." The little eunuch smiled and said to Jia Zhu in a very polite tone.

Jia Zhu met him several times, and this time he saw that he was passing the decree again, so she chatted with him a few words: "What's the name of this father-in-law?"

"Slave, little Zhuzi, Eunuch Chang is the godfather of this slave." The little eunuch smiled sweetly.

Chang Xi'er has grandchildren now, Jia Zhu really doesn't know what to say, no wonder this little Zhuzi is so polite to him.

They didn't say much all the way to the door of the imperial study room, the eunuch passed the message at the door, and then Jia Zhu went in to face the emperor. After saluting, he saw that the Yuqianlong forbidden captain who was on duty by the emperor today was that boy Zhao Feng.

The emperor seemed to be in a good mood, asked a few questions about the wedding, and then said: "I listened to the water transport you proposed last time, it is indeed a good way, starting next month you will go to the household Let's work on errands."

Unexpectedly, it was really the Ministry of Household Affairs. The result of choosing one of the two came out. Although Jia Zhu knew it in advance, he couldn’t show it right now. It’s unnecessary to pretend to be surprised. Said: "Your Majesty, I am a martial artist, will the household entry department cause people to criticize?"

The emperor waved his hand: "What are you talking about? If I tell you to go, you can go, whoever dares to criticize you." After finishing speaking, the emperor paused, and then said again: "You go to the household department as an errand, is there anyone who can recommend you?" What is the position of the lieutenant?"

"Back to the emperor, among the Long Jinwei, I feel that the three of them are talented and talented, and they are really good talents." As expected, he wanted to recommend him, and Jia Zhu already had a plan in his heart, so he said it calmly at this time.

"Oh? Three people? Which one are they? Tell me." The emperor seemed quite interested when he heard it.

"Yes." Jia Zhu explained all the advantages and disadvantages of the three people he had thought about. What surprised the emperor the most was that among the three recommended by Jia Zhu, there was Zhao Feng.

The emperor glanced at Zhao Feng, and saw the surprised expression on his face, and when he heard Jia Zhu say that he was "filial, honest, upright, excellent in martial arts, and the most precious thing is that he can correct his mistakes", his face blushed even more He was flushed, a man of five years and three years old, his face turned purple eggplant color, the emperor looked at it and said with a smile: "People say that it is a great kindness to promote virtuous people without avoiding relatives or enemies, but I have seen it today."

Jia Zhu bowed in response, but couldn't help but slander in her heart. The emperor was able to transfer Zhao Feng to the imperial court because he had clearly investigated the matter between him and Zhao Feng. Silly boy, he didn't know the reason and said he was lucky.Jia Zhu can understand the reason why the emperor appreciates Zhao Feng. He has a straight temper, no crookedness, and a strict mouth.

Thanking the emperor for his kindness, and returning home in the evening, the whole family knew that Jia Zhu had hired Wailang, a member of the household department. In terms of rank, he was downgraded, but entering the sixth department, his prospects were much better than being a lieutenant of the Dragon Guard.

Jia Zhu thought in his heart that the emperor wanted to transfer him to the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he probably made the decision a while ago when Jia Zheng was promoted to be a doctor in the Ministry of Industry, otherwise it would not have been such a coincidence.

There are still a few days before next month. As Jia Zhu expected, Zhao Feng, who was so favored by the emperor, came from behind to fill the vacancy of lieutenant, which surprised everyone. Although Zhao Feng was stunned during the delivery work, I learned a little bit, but the head is not made of wood, and there is Kang Zhenyuan pointing it at the side, so I can get started very quickly.

When it came to the day when he was going to work in the Ministry of Household Affairs, everything was as usual, the only difference was that Jia Zhu was about to ride a horse, but Liu Fang commanded him to carry the sedan chair.

"Master, now you are no longer the Forbidden Captain Long, but a civil servant. How can you ride a horse? It's time to take a sedan chair!" Liu Fang hurried up and said.

Jia Zhu looked at the sedan chair, and the corners of his mouth twitched. Now he doesn't even like to ride in a carriage, let alone a sedan chair. Although he doesn't like it in his heart, Jia Zhu thought about it. Thinking about the scene of riding a horse to work alone, Jia Zhu also felt extremely awkward.

As such, I was transferred from the Dragon Guard to the Ministry, and I started from the bottom, so I was very eye-catching. If I stood out from the crowd, Jia Zhu reckoned that I would really be overwhelmed in the Ministry.

Shaking his head, Jia Zhu had no choice but to give up riding a horse and take a sedan chair instead.

When they arrived at the gate of the household department, the servants at the door saw Jia Zhu face to face, and after verifying his identity, he realized that he was the new Yuanwailang, and hurriedly led Jia Zhu in, saying as he walked: "Master Jia, today is the small court meeting, Master Shang Shu will not be able to return until the court meeting is over, and I will accompany you to get acquainted first."

Now the emperor's court is divided into the big court meeting and the small court meeting. If it is the big court meeting, a civil servant of Jia Zhu's level will also go to the court, and the small court meeting is unnecessary. Because of this route, he arrived early on purpose, and his colleagues and climbers would all arrive later, and he still had to go to recognize people.

Along the way, there was this errand-style introduction. Jia Zhu quickly cleared the door, and everyone arrived one after another. Shang Shu Wang Ling came back from Sanchao, and Jia Zhu went to deliver the goods. He saw that Shang Shu of the Household Department was about 50 years old, he was very handsome, and his face was very kind. Seeing Jia Zhu, he looked at him with a smile.

"Old Hu and I have also been friends for many years. As early as last month, he greeted me and said that you were coming to the household department to work as an errand. He had heard him talk about you a few times before. When I saw you today, it really is Young talent, not bad."

Hearing Mr. Wang's words, Jia Zhu hurriedly said: "Mr. Wang is serious."

Master Wang nodded with a smile: "I know that you just transferred from the military position and you must not be used to it. It's okay. I'll put you in the Shandong Division. The doctor over there, Huang Zening, is my student. I greeted him, what are you doing?" If you don’t understand anything, just ask him, if there are some bad guys trying to run you, don’t hide it for them, just go to Xiao Huang, if he doesn’t care, you can come to me, this is in the ministry, wait outside, Don't call me Sir Wang, just call me Shi Bo."

Having said this, Jia Zhu was embarrassed, and said yes, but smiled bitterly in her heart, if it was a big deal, she would ask Shangfeng to help her out, and she would be ashamed to death for this errand.

Putting him in the Shandong Division surprised Jia Zhu. He thought that the emperor put him in the Ministry of Household Affairs because of the water transport, and he also had the idea of ​​​​opening the sea transport. If he was not allowed to enter the Fujian Division, it should be the Huguang Division.

It’s useless to think too much, Jia Zhu came out from Wang Shangshu’s side, recalled the position of Shandong Division when the previous post had brought him to familiarize himself with the environment, and went directly to Shandong Division.

Shandong Si Langzhong is Huang Zening mentioned by Wang Shangshu. This person is about 30 years old. Compared with Wang Shangshu's old fox, he looks much more rigid. The principal and the twelve pen posts all came to see Jia Zhu, and then said something to make Jia Zhu not worry too much.

Seeing that Shangfeng seemed to be a tactful person, Jia Zhu said what he said dryly, but it meant nothing more than the same thing. This job was done by the master and the writers, and then it was collected by him, the doctor. Here, as the doctor's deputy, Jia Zhu, a foreigner, comes on duty on time every day, so just don't make trouble for everyone.

Jia Zhu didn't know if all the Yuanwailang were so idle, or if he was the only one who was left alone, so he only showed a relieved look, and said with a smile: "Xiaguan just changed to a civilian job, and he still doesn't understand anything. After listening to Master Huang's words, I feel relieved."

Although each department does not work in the same place, they are all neighbors door to door. There are so many people in the household department, there are always a few that Jia Zhu knows, but they have a good relationship. It is said that the fifteen princes got married a while ago and came to Jia's house as a guest. Jia Zhu met a lot of new acquaintances in the household department, greeted each other, and after a few words, they warmed up.

Although Jia Zhu, a foreigner, is not a high-ranking official, what these people value is not only the current position, but the relationship between the individual and the family is delicate. The rise and fall of an individual can be controlled by the family, and can also be controlled by the family.

After inquiring on the sidelines, he found out that Yuanwailang next to him was not as leisurely as he was, Jia Zhu sneered a few times in his heart, wondering if it was Master Huang who was obsequious to Master Shang Shu, or Master Shang Shu was also a smiling tiger.

Don't be in a hurry to find out who is trying to evade yourself, even if he finds out, he can't do much. The important thing right now is that he is now in the household department, and the most important thing to do is to learn how to register in the household department. Ministry of errands.

Jia Zhu is not good at counting, but the household department is in charge of all kinds of money-related matters. Jia Zhu and Mr. Zhao made up for everything related to counting at home. Let him take care of things, everyone is in the same department, and his eyes and ears are not for decoration.

During this period of time, Jia Zhu also found out the attitudes of the principals and writers below towards her, and she also knew that this Yuanwailang left one vacant, which should be filled by the principal. Yi Airborne is sure to find someone to hate him, but he can see that these principals have a very subtle attitude towards him. They don't like themselves, dare not offend themselves, want to curry favor with themselves, and are also considerate of others.

Not to mention anything else, but if the official rank crushes people to death, Jia Zhu, a foreigner, can still give them an evaluation. You must know that the evaluation is excellent, and the evaluation is average, but there is a difference of [-] miles.

After a long time, everyone is familiar with each other. We all work in the Ministry of Household Affairs, and we can't see each other without looking up. I have to say that Jia Zhu's appearance is still very advantageous. She has a sort of elegant temperament, and when talking together, everyone also found that although Jia Zhu was not born in the imperial examination, he still has a lot of knowledge in his belly.

The advantage of being familiar with each other is that Jia Zhu doesn't have to figure it out by himself, but can master the scale and slowly ask about the errands.

But there are also many troubles that come with it. Where there are people, there are factions, not to mention that the princes are now competing. There is a clear distinction between the two princes, Jia Zhu, who has not been drawn to either side, and whose family background is not to be underestimated, has become a fragrant bun.

Jia Zhu was most afraid of being involved in this kind of thing. Faced with the wooing of the crowd, Jia Zhu would avoid it if he could, and if he couldn't avoid it, he had to find a way to avoid it. In the end, he got out of experience. Jia Zhu thought about it by himself. Xiao Ze said let him Turning into a little cunning, he felt that he was really ready for fire now.

"I was afraid that you would suffer a loss, but looking at it now, you are smarter than that monkey. It's good if you don't let others suffer!" This is what Xiao Ze told him after hearing Jia Zhu break up these things in the household department. After the evaluation, looking at Jia Zhu's appearance, if there is a tail growing on the buttocks, the tail will be up to the sky.

He stretched out his hand to pat Jia Zhu's butt, and when Jia Zhu glared at him, Xiao Ze pinched him with a smile: "Let me see, where did you hide your tail?"

Jia Zhu slapped off Xiao Ze's dishonest claws that had dug into the hem of his clothes: "As for your serious business, what do you think of Wang Shangshu?"

"I'm wondering who is making you stand up? Well, that old Wangtou is an old fox. Even if he doesn't like you, he would never use such a low-level method to make people see through at a glance. It must be that Huang." Xiao Ze That's for sure.

"It's Huang Zening, but I'm curious how I provoked him." This Shangfeng looked very serious, and Jia Zhu looked at him coldly and didn't find anything wrong with him.

"I'll show you this." Xiao Ze took out a booklet and handed it to Jia Zhu.

No.80 Read the secret book once to know the root and know the bottom line

Jia Zhu took what Xiao Ze gave him, opened it, and couldn't help but change his face, and looked up at Xiao Ze: "This..."

"If I remember correctly, you have to turn back to the front to find the kid surnamed Huang. It's not an important guy. If he wasn't your upper peak, I wouldn't let anyone find out about him." Xiao Ze touched his chin, as if anticipating Jia Zhu's reaction, and smiled without any unexpected expression.

"How could you have such a thing? It's just..." Jia Zhu knew that Xiao Ze was in charge of the Tianting Department, and he also knew where the Tianting Department was, but he never thought that Xiao Ze would have such a thing in his hand. Such things exist, that's right, the pamphlet that Xiao Ze handed him contains detailed records of officials from various departments in the court, and even the origin of their concubines can be clearly investigated. clearly.

At this moment, Jia Zhu felt that this thing was in his hands, and it was worth more than a thousand pieces of gold. Whether he looked at it or not, Xiao Ze saw Jia Zhu's embarrassment, and raised his eyebrows: "Since I let you see, you can Look, these people are the same people from the household department, it’s no big deal, if you want to see others, I can’t let you see it now.”

Jia Zhu took a deep breath, but the temptation of this thing was very strong for him. The art of war is said to know oneself and the enemy, and the officialdom is also like a battlefield. It is equivalent to grasping the lifeline of the other party.

Otherwise, sometimes, it is very likely that you were plotted against by other people's tricks, and you don't know who did it. Even if you find out who did it in the end, you don't know why he did it.

In the booklet Xiao Ze gave him, the details listed are simply jaw-dropping. When Jia Zhu saw Huang Zening, he frowned more and more. He didn't know how to evaluate this person. He has no grudges with Jia Zhu in the past, and he has no grudges in the present. His biggest problem is that he loves to seize power. , In the end, I couldn't be clear to the end, and I touched the ashes of the nose, and I couldn't get up or down.

This man, Jia Zhu couldn't help laughing, but he was somewhat similar to Shi Jinwen, the historian's cousin.After reading these, Jia Zhu probably knew that he was sure that he despises himself, but it is definitely not aimed at himself, but he has always been like this.But there is one thing that Jia Zhu has doubts in his heart. If Huang Zening is like this, why does Wang Shangshu put himself in the Shandong Division to be his subordinate?As the Minister of the Household Department, it is impossible for him not to know Huang Zening's character.Without waiting for Jia Zhu to think deeply, Xiao Ze continued: "Nowadays when you don't have to be a bodyguard, there are everyone in the officialdom, and it will be good for you to find out. Zhao Ningchuan can also do these things. What will happen in the future? If you want to investigate, just ask him, don't worry, he is very reliable." Xiao Ze pushed Zhao Ningchuan to the front line.

Now Zhao Ningchuan is in Jia's house, not only the teacher of several children, but also the staff of Jia Zheng and Jia Zhu's father and son. Although the father and son often discuss with him about official affairs, Jia Zhu never thought of asking him to help investigate others. After all, if this kind of thing is exposed, it can be regarded as treason.

"Mr. Zhao is from your Tianting Department?" This question has been in Jia Zhu's mind for a long time.

"Yes, and no, his identity is a bit special, but remember, he won't harm you." Xiao Ze said half of the sentence mysteriously.

Jia Zhu blinked, but the fog didn't clear away, but it made him even more curious. After thinking for a while, Jia Zhu's eyes lit up, staring closely at Xiao Ze, and asked, "Since you are so powerful, how can I There is one thing that I am very curious about, you must know how Wang Ren died, huh?"

Xiao Ze was stunned for a moment, looking into Jia Zhu's shrewd eyes, he thought to himself that he had miscalculated, how could he have forgotten about Wang Ren.

The change in Xiao Ze's expression was noticed by Jia Zhu. Jia Zhu couldn't help being startled and asked, "Could it be that you did it?"

Xiao Ze nodded helplessly, and then explained in detail many things that Wang Ren did that Jia Zhu didn't know. Jia Zhu listened, and his face became extremely livid. How can I be sorry for this cousin Wang Ren? As far as the Long Jinwei mutiny incident was concerned, Wang Ren was to blame. Doing so much harm to himself and the Jia family?

"Although he is not guilty of death for doing these things, but there is always such a vicious villain thinking about you all day long, no matter how careful he is, there will be times when he is careful." Xiao Ze saw that Jia Zhu's face was not good, and he couldn't help it. Angry with Wang Ren, he was still angry with himself for stabbing him horizontally.

"I understand." Jia Zhu nodded, his face softened, Xiao Ze felt relieved seeing that he really didn't look angry.

Since reading these materials from Xiao Ze, Jia Zhu has seen these colleagues in the ministry more clearly than before. The Jia family has offended many people from Prince Yizhong to now. There are countless ties, Jia Zhu always remembers in his heart, the heart of harming others is indispensable, and the heart of guarding against others is also indispensable, it is always good to be prepared.

Knowing that Shangfeng Huang Zening is a man who loves to seize power and is the most unwilling to support his subordinates, Jia Zhu looks at the chiefs and writers in the department, and feels more caressing in his heart. Thinking about it, they are not superficial to this Huang Langzhong It looks so respectful, right?

Jia Zhu thought that it was time to find a breakthrough to break his current delicate position in the ministry. He didn't want to socialize with the Huang Langzhong above him. He had to find ways to get closer to these subordinates. How to learn by himself, what he can learn is limited, there must be a place for him to try, right?

The opportunity came soon. Mrs. Hu's father, Mrs. Hu, was celebrating his birthday. Mrs. Hu was too pregnant to go out. Jia Amnesty took Jia Lian and Jia Cong to celebrate his father-in-law's birthday. Jia Zhu also prepared gifts and gifts. She went to the Hu Mansion together.

Mr. Hu has now retired to take care of his family. He is just such a precious daughter as Mrs. Hu. Although the dowry back then was astonishingly generous, it is nothing compared to the Hu family's property. Not to mention the rich family background, Mr. Hu He also has a very wide network of contacts in the officialdom. Back then, he and Mr. Wang were both servants of the household department. If he hadn't been approved to be an official, it is impossible to say who is now the minister of the household department.

The most incomprehensible thing is that the relationship between Wang Shangshu and Mr. Hu, who is now the Minister of the Household Department, is very good. This day, Mr. Hu is celebrating his birthday, and Wang Shangshu also came in person. I saw that many colleagues from the household department had arrived, including the three chiefs of Shandong Division, but Huang Zening did not come.

"Lian'er, Cong'er, do me a favor." Jia Zhu called Jia Lian and Jia Cong and gave them some instructions.

The two nodded, and ran to the gift list, saying that they wanted to help. The steward knew that the master loved the two grandsons the most, so there was no way they would disagree. When Jia Lian came back and talked to Jia Zhu, as expected, Huang Zening did not Come on, there are many gifts, which is really his style.

Not long after, the old birthday star came out. Although there were many guests present, they were different from each other. At a glance, those who are interested can know which ones are close and which ones are here to flatter. , Xin Dao is an official, Mr. Hu can be regarded as a tumbler, everyone else just goes for tea, but his place is very lively.

Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Master Hu looking over, which happened to meet my own, and I saw him nodding to Jia Zhu, smiling even more heartily.Jia Zhu didn't know the meaning of this smile, but she could feel that the other party was not malicious.

Looking at the past, Mr. Hu has already turned his eyes away to talk to Wang Shangshu. After a while, Wang Shangshu also looked over. Jia Zhu didn't want to go to talk to Wang Shangshu, but it's not good to pretend that he didn't see it. Jia Zhu had no choice but to walk over, first to pay homage to Mr. Hu's birthday, and then to meet Wang Shangshu.

"Since you came to work that day, I have no time to ask you if you have adapted, and if you have encountered any troubles. Just now, Lao Hu asked me something, but he stopped me. No, just now he blamed me. After Wang Shangshu finished speaking, he said to Mr. Hu: "I see that my nephew is clever, but you just don't worry."

The nephews came out, and Jia Zhu secretly thought of an old fox, and only smiled and said to Master Hu: "Master Wang takes good care of me, and I am familiar with the errands, but I am not used to the sudden change from military to civilian. Forget it, but my colleagues taught me a lot and benefited me a lot.”

While Jia Zhu was talking, out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the three principals were all paying attention to her side, their expressions were a little nervous, and she couldn't help but smile.

Master Hu also nodded with a smile when he heard it, and then called Jia Lian and Jia Cong, "Your grandmother has been nagging you for a long time, go and sit inside, she has prepared good things for you, Zhu'er hasn't seen you yet." Pass my old lady?"

Asking him to go to the inner house, Jia Zhu couldn't help being slightly stunned. Just as he turned around, Jia Lian and Jia Cong had already dragged him inside. Jia Zhu was puzzled as he walked. , I am far behind, this trade hastily entered the inner house of the Hu Mansion under the eyes of everyone, others would think so.

Thinking of this, Jia Zhu suddenly understood Master Hu's intentions. Was he telling everyone that he was equivalent to the status of the grandson of the Hu family?But, why did Master Hu do this?

Jia Zhu couldn't figure it out, but the reason was actually very simple. Mr. Hu was such a fine person, he was willing to marry his daughter to the Jia family, and he did a lot of homework on the Jia family. At first, he didn't think much of it, but the deeper he dug, Only then did he realize that the center of everything in the entire Jia family revolved around Jia Zhu, a yellow-mouthed child.

Looking at it after his daughter got married, Mr. Hu became more and more sure of his judgment, and he took more care of Jia Zhu. The rest of the Jia family didn't worry about it. Make plans for your daughter and grandson.

From the purchase of the public property, Mr. Hu found that Jia Zhu has no selfishness, which is already very rare. A bowl of water is easier said than done. How many people can't figure it out when they are old, but let a child do it "If this is still rare, let Jia Lian help manage his daughter-in-law's dowry shop, which surprised Mr. Hu."

All Master Hu's opinions before were based on guarding against Jia Zhu, who was a scheming man for his daughter and grandson. Now that he thinks about it from another angle, Master Hu realized that he might be thinking wrong. The intimacy is because Jia Lian treats Jia Cong sincerely, so, apart from his own daughter, is there any other reason why Jia Lian loves his brothers so much?Thinking down this line of thought, Mr. Hu suddenly became enlightened.

Thinking of what my daughter once said that Cong'er's future will also depend on Jia Zhu, Mr. Hu is deeply convinced at this time that Cong'er is still young and he is already old, and the future of the children still depends on the children themselves .

The so-called reciprocation, Mr. Hu included Jia Zhu in his own circle, and only then did he have the current intimacy.

Jia Zhu couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it any more. It's not a bad thing. Jia Lian and Jia Cong, the inner houses of Hu's mansion, were familiar with each other. Mrs. Hu was a particularly strong old woman. Seeing her, immediately seemed to see Mrs. Hu's appearance in old age.

It can be seen that Mrs. Hu is very doting on the two little ones. As soon as Jia Lian and Jia Cong entered the house, they would hug Mrs. Hu. Mrs. Hu also smiled happily with one hand and the other, and all the maids in the room followed suit. It is said that the two grandsons are closer than the grandsons of their own relatives.

Jia Zhu stepped forward to salute, Mrs. Hu looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "Cong'er always said that when he grows up, he will learn from his big brother to be a general. I didn't expect to see you today, like a white-faced scholar." , looking at the gentleman, he doesn't look like a rough man."

Now Jia Zhu could hear calluses in his ears when he heard this kind of talk, and he just smiled and said: "Cong'er is very talented in martial arts, and he will be promising in the future."

Mrs. Hu laughed even more heartily when she heard that, Jia Cong's stomach was rumbling now, Mrs. Hu hurriedly asked the girl to bring some food, Jia Cong was a little embarrassed, Jia Zhu touched his head and said with a smile: " Boys are at this age when they eat to grow taller, if you don’t eat more, how can you be a mighty general in the future?”

As soon as Jia Cong was amused, Mrs. Hu also said: "You who are in a mess in front are also in a hurry, and you won't be able to eat anything after the banquet, why don't you just eat some good food here."

The food of the Hu family is not as refined and complex as the Jia family, but the combination of meat and vegetables is very tempting. Jia Cong finished eating like a little tiger, and even yelled that the food at his grandmother's house was delicious, and the old man Hu People were so rare that they held him in their arms for a while. After a while, the servant girl came to report that there was going to be a feast ahead, and the three young masters were invited to go ahead.

Going back to the front, the seats at the banquet were all arranged. Jia She sat down next to Mr. Hu, and on the other side of Jia She was Jia Zhu, followed by Jia Lian and Jia Cong. Another climax was reached.

When the guests dispersed in the evening, Jia Amnesty helped to clean up the leftover seats. Master Hu asked Jia Zhu to talk, but this time there was no one else, so Master Hu's questioning became more targeted: "I work in the ministry, but I am familiar with this household. Is there an urgent errand for the Ministry?"

After hearing this, Jia Zhu only talked about what she knew, and finally said: "I am still learning while watching. I have just started, and there is still a long way to go."

Master Hu nodded. From Jia Zhu's words, he could hear that all of Jia Zhu's knowledge was figured out by himself, but no one else taught him. After thinking about it, Master Hu asked: "Are you in the Shandong Division? Which is the peak?"

Jia Zhu said truthfully, "It's Huang Zening Huang Langzhong."

"I don't know who it is, so it's him, that's no wonder." A trace of disdain flashed across Mr. Hu's always smiling face, "You don't need to pay attention to him, just move your eyes, and you will naturally gain something." .”

Now Jia Zhu also thought of taking action from those principals. At this moment, he nodded in response to Mr. Hu's words. Mr. Hu pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "You must be wondering why Wang Shangshu sent you to Shandong Division to Huang Zening. Is your subordinate doing something?"

Jia Zhu didn't expect Mrs. Hu to say that, she was slightly taken aback, she didn't know how to answer this question, Mrs Hu didn't ask Jia Zhu to answer, she knew it by seeing his expression, and said at this moment: "It's still It's really not what the old Wangtou meant, but the emperor ordered you to enter the Shandong Division."

Jia Zhu was really confused this time. He once thought that if it was the emperor's intention, he would be the Fujian division after all. It is impossible to be the Shandong division, so he rejected the idea that the emperor appointed him. Mr. Hu heard the news from the mouth.

"How could this be?"

"The meaning of the emperor, it's always bad for us courtiers to make wild guesses, but since the emperor ordered it, there must be his deep meaning, you have to work hard, and don't let the emperor down!" Mr. Hu said Zai patted Jia Zhu on the shoulder, and then went to talk to Jia She.

Jia Zhu pondered the emperor's intentions in her heart, and the first thing she thought of was the pair of brothers she met during the southern tour, but Hubu and the two brothers couldn't get along, so she couldn't figure it out any more, and waited until the second day of the birthday banquet Going to work in the ministry, Jia Zhu obviously felt that the attitude of the three principals who appeared at the birthday banquet yesterday had become much warmer towards her.
