Jia She, the local tyrant of the Red Chamber
Chapter 77 (1)
Because Suzhou was originally Daiyu's hometown, they said that this trip was for fun, and they also wanted to accompany Daiyu back to their hometown, so they stayed for a while.
Naturally, these days are not just wasted.This time going south, Jia Amnesty sorted out the properties of the Lin family in the south, and slowly handed them over to Daiyu, letting her read the account books, come up with some ideas, and even go to her own Zhuangzi shop to have a look.By the way, Jia Amnesty taught her how to manage these external accounts, and how to relieve the farmers in case of natural disasters.Yingchun Jiang Zhao naturally listened, Jia Cong was too deaf, and occasionally complained that his father was partial, "I like Sister Lin the most".
Jia She was dumbfounded, he really preferred Daiyu to these children.After all, he came here to treat these children as close as possible, treating these little guys like a teacher.Teachers will always unconsciously favor bright students.Daiyu is obviously the kind of Goddess who learns to master both arts and sciences in later generations, which teacher doesn't like it.
He also likes Jiang Zhao.Although this child has only been with him recently, aside from being smart, he is still diligent and willing to learn.Contrary to Jia Cong who had to be chased by Jia Amnesty and begged him to be obedient, Jiang Zhao could always hear something that was not the main point, and asked many generalized topics.For example, in the year of a catastrophe, Jia Amnesty only told Daiyu to prepare some money, food and clothing for the farmers, but Jiang Zhao asked the hundreds of thousands of disaster victims how to resettle them.After talking about a lot of disaster relief methods for later generations, Daiyu asked if there was any way to control the river.
As a pure engineering student, Jia She had never studied river management in his two lifetimes.Only 300 years later, everyone knows that the destruction of vegetation in the Yellow River has seriously led to soil erosion.Therefore, he deliberately conducted an experiment on Zhuangzi. He washed ten barrels of water through two similar ditches, one with vegetation growing and the other with clear vegetation.Sure enough, a lot of soil was washed away from the place where the grass and trees were dug.Jia Amnesty pointed to the silt below and said, "That's why the river bed of the Yellow River is getting higher and higher year by year. As the river bed gets higher, the water storage capacity in the river will naturally decrease, and when it rains, it will overflow."
Jiang Zhao sighed, "It's so."
Pian Daiyu tilted her head and looked at it for a long time, and said: "It is not a day's cold to freeze three feet, and it is too late to start planting trees now."
Jia She said with a smile: "Planting trees is of course the root cause. However, in recent years, we have to treat the symptoms. The imperial court is building dams every year, or we can prepare some..." He recalled the sandbags mentioned on TV during the flood control period in later generations, and roughly said After looking for a while, he glanced at Jiang Zhao.Jiang Zhao understood that this thing was thought up by later generations, and he couldn't help but feel a little fascination on his face.
Only Yingchun has no interest in river and water regulation, and is quite bored, breaking branches from trees to make small baskets; Jia Cong went to the tree to bully the little bird in the morning.Jia She looked up to the sky—no one can expect the whole class to be ambitious, can they?
Going back today, Jia Amnesty seemed to have a second thought.He is often worried.Yingchun's son-in-law is an idiot, the two have common hobbies, and are planning to compile a complete chess game together; the in-law's family wants to use their own strength to show themselves in the court.Not to mention that his family background and appearance are not obvious, so there must not be many people who provoke him.The day of welcoming the spring should be no problem.This is a lot of trouble for Daiyu.On Jiang Wen's forehead was engraved with the words "Quasi Power Minister". Jiang Zhao was smart, and the two children had to have something else besides a little romance.But Jia Amnesty thought for a long time but couldn't figure out how to knead the two of them together.Looking at it now, Daiyu can comprehend things quite well. If you teach her more about everything, she may be able to help Jiang Zhao think of many ideas.From a selfish point of view, he also very much hoped that Daiyu's clever little brain would come in handy.After all, he still admired those smart and capable women in his previous life.
On this day, Jiang Zhao suddenly came to him.
It turned out that Jia She threw a bomb from 300 years later that day and left it alone, but Jiang Zhao kept thinking about it. "My little nephew just doesn't understand that our army is strong and horses are strong," Jiang Zhao said, "Why did foreigners invade the south of the Yangtze River after a hundred years of effort?"
Jia Amnesty was stunned for a while, thinking about the national humiliation where he came from, filled with emotion.Because he walked out of the room with his hands behind his back, he looked up at Fang Tian, who was surrounded by the courtyard above his head. After a long time, he finally sighed: "What's the use of a strong soldier and a strong horse. After a hundred years, we won't rely on that in war." Yin smiled wryly, "We have always been scholars, farmers, businessmen, It also emphasizes that men are superior to women. When we look down on other people's foreigners, the foreigners have already climbed over us."
Jiang Zhao said solemnly: "My nephew wanted to teach me the reason why I came here."
Jia Amnesty shook his head, and after a while he said, "People are talented, whether they are scholars, farmers, businessmen, men or women, Zhao'er thinks so or not."
Jiang Zhao nodded: "Naturally. No matter men or women, no matter what kind of people they are, there are people with extraordinary talents."
Jia She said: "There are few foreigners, but regardless of men and women, regardless of whether they are scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen, they all study. Then they choose their careers based on talent. Those who are good at business are businessmen, and those who are good at agriculture are farmers. They treat everyone equally. Therefore, many of their bright children have all studied industry. .”
Jiang Zhao was shocked: "Xue Gong?"
Jia She smiled wryly: "Our dynasties and dynasties have never looked down on craftsmen. Therefore, among the craftsmen, the bright children change their careers when they find opportunities. There are always a limited number of people who don't change their careers. They prefer foreigners to work hard. Workers can sharpen their tools and weapons. "
Jiang Zhao gasped.A long weapon is a strong soldier, he already knew this.
"I have a limited number of craftsmen's clever children, and I can make some crude firearms. People from foreign races, regardless of whether they are male or female, have more intelligent children who are capable workers. Gradually, firearms are ten times and a hundred times stronger than mine. After a hundred years, their firearms will be light. No matter whether men or women hold a thousand The enemy can be shot at a step away; my bow and arrow can only shoot a hundred steps. Those who have heavy artillery in their firearms can smash the city wall dozens of miles outside the city. Zhaoer, I know you are not convinced. Think about it. Thousand-step firearms, how can you win a war with others like this?"
No wonder you can win!It's not the massacre!Jiang Zhao was dumbfounded.After a long while, he gritted his teeth and said, "I will start the work with my father."
Jia She said with a smile: "Naturally, craftsmen are not the only ones. There is a kind of people called engineers, who concentrate on making tools. After the research is completed, craftsmen do it. There is also a kind of people called scientists, who specialize in researching natural objects for engineers. , so that engineers can develop instruments according to these."
Jiang Zhaoxian was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Uncle's physics!"
Jia She smiled lightly, broke a willow branch in the courtyard and said, "Do you think I am convinced?" Using the willow branch as a whip, he pointed at the sky, "Most monarchs and ministers in our country think that the sky is only this small, do you think I am willing?"
Jiang Zhao came over and bowed to Jia Amnesty, without saying a word, his eyes moistened slightly.
From now on, Jiang Zhao also studied physics with Jia She.Because Jia She was too lazy to deal with men and women at home, he often asked Daiyu to attend classes together. After all, the two of them would be a married couple in a few years.In class, the two of them often argued with each other, but it was also very interesting.
Afterwards, Li San sneaked out to meet Jia Amnesty twice.Jia Amnesty thought that one sheep is herding and two sheep are herding, so he seriously propagated the theory of surplus value and proletariat to him, sowing one more seed for later democracy.Li Sanke was much less worried than Jiang Zhao, and his blood boiled after hearing this, so he couldn't respect Jia She as the leader of the democratic church.
Seeing the days go by so fast, and the end of May is approaching, the few of them had to prepare to return to Beijing.Jia She slapped his head suddenly, pretending to have just remembered: "When we went back to Yangzhou, we forgot to go to Ganquan Academy. There was an old mountain chief named Shen Tong there."
Jiang Zhao remembered that meeting at first, and he said it a few times, but Jia She tried to evade it. Jiang Zhao thought he had something on his mind, so he didn't mention it anymore.In fact, Jia Amnesty was just afraid that what the old man might say to this kid would prevent him from brainwashing him.
Daiyu now knew that this old man was her father's guarantor, so she wept secretly.
Then they packed up their bags and went to Yangzhou.The day before his departure, Jia She had a sudden whim and wandered around the Panxiang Temple on Xuanmu Mountain. He never saw a nun named "Miaoyu", and he felt a bit regretful about missing a famous person.
Ganquan Academy has been established since the previous dynasty, and it has been up and down several times. It has produced hundreds of Jinshi, including three champions. Now it is in its heyday, with a large number of scholars from all over the world.When Jia Amnesty and others went to visit, the pomegranates in the courtyard were in full bloom, and the fragrance of gardenia wafted from them, which made people feel refreshed.
The old man Shen Tong was over sixty years old, with white beard and hair, and an extremely dignified gentleman's face, which was the type that Jia She could not deal with the most.Therefore, after meeting for a few pleasantries, he pushed Jiang Zhao towards the old man: "This is the eldest son of Jiang Wen, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, famous, and he will be eighteen in a few months. Husband-in-law."
Shen Tong was overjoyed.At first, he got a letter from Cheng Lin in Beijing, saying that Duke Rong had chosen Mr. Jiang's eldest son as his son-in-law for Lin Hai's daughter, but he still didn't believe it.Why didn't the Jia family leave such good things to their daughters?Later, there was a scripture saying that Duke Rong went south to worship his ancestors, and he wanted to bring Mr. Jiang to visit him, so he believed it a little.However, he waited from early spring to late spring, but he didn't see anyone, thinking that something happened.Sure enough, I saw someone coming today, and I couldn't help but praise: "You have eyes like those at the end of the sea!"
The corner of Jia She's mouth twitched: It's obvious that he was the one chosen by the master, how could he become a man with discernment—although it's no fun to care about the dead.
Shen Tong and Jiang Zhao's grandfather were also very familiar in the early years. When Jiang Zhao saw the ceremony, the old and the young naturally talked about "The Doctrine of the Mean" and "The Great Learning".Jia She and his son had nothing to do, and they were not the kind of people who were willing to put up with boredom and pretend to be gentle, so they told Shen Tong that they were rude, and went for a stroll outside.
Jia Cong had never been to an academy; Jia She bought tickets to two or three ancient academies when he was traveling in his previous life, but it was just a vain scene.Therefore, both father and father found it fresh and interesting, seeing that all the scholars who came and went were well-mannered, and they were very pleasing to the eye.Jia She asked in a low voice, "Cong'er, do you want to study in the academy?"
Jia Cong frowned, and said bluntly, "No."
Jia She said with a smile: "Aren't you envious of these handsome brothers?"
Jia Cong said honestly: "I'm envious. I'm just envious. I don't want to study every day. Brother Jiang said that they only have to rest for half a month in school. Besides, the people in their academy are very gentle, and they might not even be able to play Cuju. It’s all out of place.”
Jia She smiled and pinched his little cheek: "That's right! I, Cong'er, don't want to work so hard."
But this was heard by a scholar next to him, and he interjected: "Your Excellency, if you don't have ten years of hard work, how can you get nominated for the gold list?"
Jia She said with a smile: "I didn't force my son to be nominated for the Gold List, so naturally there is no need to suffer."
The scholar was a bit interesting, and said strangely: "Everyone expects their son to become a dragon, so you don't want your son to become a man?"
Jia She said: "Of course I'm willing. It's just that there is a long way to become a man. If he doesn't like reading, why bother to force him. It's better to find something he likes. Even if he is stubborn, it's okay to be stubborn. He's still young, I hope he eats and sleeps well, and we'll talk about it in three to five years."
He said while Jia Cong nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
The scholar said: "It's just that in three or five years time, others may finish reading the Four Books and Five Classics."
Jia She only shook his head: "There are mountain people outside the mountains, and we are just as good as most people in the world. Why bother to compare with those outstanding people! No one is exhausted. Ordinary talents, ordinary talents, ordinary characters, the same Have fun."
The scholar suddenly laughed and said: "I thought that the honorable master wanted to say that the talent is ordinary and the talent is ordinary, but the character is not ordinary."
Jia She also smiled: "You are a scholar who is sincerely joking. Being a good character is the most tiring thing. I am just an ordinary man. Is it worthwhile to let the child work hard to become a gentleman?"
The scholar nodded: "Sir, it's not uncommon to do so."
Jia She waved his hands again and again: "Mo Ti, I have been vulgar in everything in my life, except that I don't like to put gold on my face."
The scholar laughed, but asked the gentleman's name.
Jia Sheyin said: "The surname is Jia, the name She is Enhou, and the surname is from Jinling."
The scholar cupped his hands and said, "Xiaosheng's surname is Fang and his name is Jing. There is no word yet. He is from Yangzhou."
Jia Cong also cupped his hands and said, "The boy's surname is Jia Mingcong, from Jinling. Father hasn't chosen the name yet."
The three met by chance and passed by.
After a long time, Jia Amnesty rubbed his head and said to himself, "It seems like I've heard the name Fang Jing before."
They wandered around the academy a few times, and Jiang Zhao had already been praised countless times by Old Master Shen.
That night, she took Daiyu to Yingchun and went to the Shen family for a home banquet. Mrs. Shen naturally praised her two times when she saw her, so Daiyu's life was settled.
Two days later, Jia Amnesty led the four children and went to the capital with two boats of Jiangnan soil instruments, which were actually prepared as dowries for the two girls.
The author has something to say: Emma, today is a bit of a stretch, playing games is too much of a waste of time, but we just can't help it ==
78
It is said that Jia Amnesty led a few children to travel around the south of the Yangtze River and finally returned to Beijing, without talking all the way.When they left the boat and landed on the shore this day, Jia Lian and the stewards of Jiang's family had been waiting for a long time. They met each other, chatted a few gossips, and went back to their homes.On the way, Jia Lian told him that Jiang Wu was already waiting in his study.
Jia She frowned, "Didn't the letter a few days ago say that everything is safe? There is something wrong in Beijing."
Jia Lian smiled wryly, "I didn't understand it in the letter, but my father knew about it when he saw Uncle Jiang."
When the group returned to the mansion, Jia Amnesty led the children to visit Jia's mother first, and told Jia Lian, "He has been waiting for so long anyway, so he is not afraid to wait a little longer." Jia Lian still smiled wryly.It happened that Sister Feng was in Jiamu's yard, so I asked you to greet me by the way.
When Jia Amnesty came out of Jia Mu's courtyard and saw Mrs. Xing again, he went straight to the study.
Just after entering the door, I heard Jiang Wu ordering: "Prepare dinner for me and your master later, and bring it directly here."
Yin scolded with a smile: "Think this is your home." He lifted up the soft curtain of lotus root color and sprinkled flowers to come in, and said back, "It's already summer, change the curtain to a cooler color, whatever the color of water, frost or white is good." The servant answered.
I saw Jiang Wu slumped on his new rattan chair and said weakly: "The Duke of the country is coming back! The last general thinks that you have been hooked by the fisherman of the water village."
Jia Amnesty snorted, just as someone brought tea to the table, he drank two cups first, then looked at Jiang Wu: "Is there something going on in the court again? It's only been a few days."
Seeing that Wang Enqin had kicked him out, Jiang Wu closed the door smoothly, then got up and walked over to the seat opposite Jia She, and lazily said: "The second child has fallen out of favor because his grandfather is the old man of Wu Ge. The old man Si doesn't know if it's true cleverness or fake intentions, he recites poems and composes all day long, looks like a poet and prince, and his mother's family doesn't show it anyway. Dishonest. The old eight and the old nine are still breastfeeding, and the mother's house is also moving. Two more princes have been diagnosed in the palace. The one in Su Guiren's belly is about the tenth. Your concubine Jia will give birth to the old one in a few months eleven."
Jia Amnesty's scalp was numb. "Who knows if it's a boy or a girl until it's born, it's annoying." The damned five foxes really have a secret recipe for having children?Hundreds of years from now you won't be sure about this.
"This one will definitely be born in peace. Hasn't there been a baby in the palace since the Queen Mother didn't care about it?" Jiang Wu gloated and leaned in front of him, shaking the teacup, "Everyone is around you now. The second child is getting married to your Justin."
Jia She rolled his eyes and said, "After talking for a long time, it's nothing more than the third child and the fifth child fighting."
Jiang Wu nodded: "The third child is much more capable than the fifth child, and he is also the son of the eldest son. It is said that the fifth child can't beat the third child. But now the two of them are evenly matched on the surface, but the fifth child is more sacred. , the sages often praised him for being smart and pure and filial."
Jia She said with a smile: "It's not surprising. When the old sage was in his prime, he loved his stupid sons more?" He knew that it must be Situ Yuan's counselor who helped him.Situ Yuan has been fighting with the saint for so many years, it is said that the one who knows a person best is not his friend but his enemy, and it is not a piece of cake for him to teach Xiaowu to please the saint.
Jiang Wu smiled wryly and said: "A while ago, the sage finally found evidence to get General He from the Jianrui Camp down. At the court meeting, the Third Prince recommended me."
Jia She said casually: "Well, you will get more salary too."
Jiang Wu went on to say, "The sage agrees."
"Congratulations."
"The saint asked me to choose someone to take over the special battalion."
"Okay...wait! What?" Jia Shexuan poured out the tea in his hand, "You are going to change places, and you have to hand over the special battalion?"
Jiang Wudao: "Yes."
"The sage also asked you to pick someone yourself?"
Jiang Wu smiled wryly, "If not, why am I so worried."
Jia She blurted out: "The sage is too wicked!" This man is too difficult to pick.Not only must they be able to suppress the group of people in the special camp, but they must also be impartial and non-partisan, and the saint must be at ease.The most terrible thing is that his two selfish intentions are to poach the emperor's corner and privatize the special operations. "Is there anyone in your mind?"
Jiang Wu simply said: "No." He poured himself a cup of tea, and said after a while, "He is a saint, but also his own, and can manage the special camp, no. Therefore, I came to find you."
Jia She scolded, "I don't know any generals!"
"Let you come up with other ideas, maybe I won't be transferred to another place for the time being." Jiang Wu glanced at him, "Give me an extra year or two, and let me teach the people behind. Peng Xiaoliu is a scumbag .”
Jia She then understood that he was unwilling to hand over the special battalion now, and he was secretly happy.Yin thought for a while: "I'm afraid I can't. However, I have a good candidate in my heart. It depends on whether the saint dares to use it."
Jiang Wu was overjoyed: "I knew you had an idea!"
Jia Amnesty smiled slightly: "Peng Run."
Jiang Wu was taken aback.
"Able to be civil and military, wise and resourceful, able to manage the special camp, she is a female general and does not want to marry, so the saint is at ease—more at ease than using her brother, and more at ease than you. Your special camp is a secret camp anyway. Those old guys in court don't know." Jia She looked sideways out of the window, the sky was still bright, "After all the troubles in Jiangnan last time, she is now her own."
Jiang Wu was stunned for a long time after hearing this: "...she is a woman..." After all, with the matter of Mr. Qi, it is obvious that this aunt is of the same kind as his group.
Jia Amnesty turned his face and smiled again: "If she hands over this battalion to Peng Xiaoliu in the future, she can also build a special battalion for female soldiers, and they can often win by surprise compared to male soldiers in battle." He suddenly laughed, "I've even thought of a name, it's called the Fire Phoenix Women's Special Battalion."
After a while, Jiang Wu suddenly said: "Enhou, I always feel that you have other intentions in it."
Jia She said with a smile: "Don't you think that one more special battalion will give us more security? I don't think any of these princes can be relied on."
Jiang Wu frowned, and whispered for half a day, "Where's the one in your niece's stomach?"
Jia She shook his head again and again: "You know what our family was like a few years ago. Those who went to the palace to seek wealth and honor at that time, even if they were talented, they didn't have great wisdom, at least they didn't know how to choose. I dare not make her the queen mother, The relatives are still not sure what will happen."
Jiang Wu nodded and sighed: "I hope the sage can choose a good one." After saying that, he frowned.
The two were stunned for a while, Jiang Wu suddenly said: "It's still early, I'll go back to the mansion for dinner."
Jia She snorted, "Let's go! I haven't seen my Little Yezi yet."
Jiang Wu smiled and picked up his feet and walked away, Jia She immediately asked Xiao Yezi Zhuang Zhuang to come over.
After a while, I heard Xiao Yezi's voice calling "Grandfather, Grandfather" at the door, and the corners of Jia She's mouth immediately grinned. "My little Ye Zi!" Seeing the door curtain move, Xiao Ye Zi got in and rushed towards Jia She.Jia She hurriedly knelt down and hugged him upright, and shouted, "I miss my grandfather!"
Xiao Ye Zi rubbed his arms around his neck: "Grandpa is back! Mom wants me to learn how to tie the net! Xiao Ye Zi doesn't want to learn!"
Jia She said casually: "If you don't want to learn, then don't! Our Little Yezi is still young, let's talk about it in two years." Suddenly remembered, this little fat girl is seven years old!No wonder it's so heavy handed.Can't help being frustrated, how can a child grow up so fast.
Xiao Ye Zi cheered: "I knew that grandfather is the best!" Then asked whether Ke had brought a gift to Xiao Ye Zi.
Jia She said with a smile: "I have brought quite a few, and they are piled up in that box. Let's pick the small leaves first when I pack them up tomorrow!"
Xiao Ye Zi said crisply: "Okay!"
Just talking, the wet nurse hugged little Jia Zhuo and came in to say hello.
Jia Zhuo can talk a lot now, and when he saw Jia She, he called "grandfather" as ordered, but he was not affectionate, and looked around with his bright black eyes.
Jia Amnesty knew that after five months, the child had forgotten himself.He hurriedly reached out to take it over and asked with a smile, "Don't Zhuang Zhuang remember your grandfather?"
Zhuang Zhuang called out "grandfather" again, Jia Amnesty was dissatisfied, and shook his eldest grandson on his shoulder a few times.
Zhuang Zhuang immediately became excited, laughed and screamed, and slapped his grandfather's big hand with his two little paws.
Jia Amnesty also became excited, and walked around the room several times against him, while Xiao Ye Zi clapped her hands to join in the fun.After wandering around, he hugged Zhuang Zhuang back into his arms. The kid was so happy that he arched Jia She's neck, and he muttered "Grandfather, Grandfather".
Jia Amnesty laughed loudly: "Little ancestor, I think it's my grandfather this time."
Xiao Ye Zi said from the side: "Brother remembered, it was my grandfather who was stubborn against him every day in the past."
Jia She said with a smile, "Isn't it? How can your father have such leisure time?"
The grandparents and grandchildren had another meeting. Baoyu and the others came to pay their respects, and Jia Zheng also went down to the Yamen.The two brothers met each other, said a few words hastily, and had their own dinner.
After dinner, after a short rest, Jia Zheng and Jia Lian came to Jia Amnesty's study to talk about things.
It turns out that these days, the princes and mothers are all trying to win over the two of them, and even Yuan Chun in the palace has received a lot of care, especially the empress arranged her very well.Jia Zheng was originally a scholar, and he had no intention of letting the son of Yuanchun take over the heir, but he was willing to support the son of the middle palace, so he discussed with Jia She.
Jia She said "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
It turned out that he met a scholar named Fang Jing at Ganquan Academy in Yangzhou the month before last, he was quite familiar to his ears that day, and now he remembered it.Isn't it the name of the queen's nephew?Among the people who proposed to marry Daiyu that day, he was the only one who looked the most reliable, and he was the matchmaker entrusted to the old concubine Beijing.
Jia She thought to himself, he didn't know whether the kid was on purpose or not, so he ignored him anyway.Because he told Jia Zheng and Jia Lian: "Hide as far away as possible. You must never get involved in the matter of seizing the heir. Don't forget that saints are not born in the middle palace. Look at how the Yizhong princes are now. end?"
Jia Zheng shuddered when he said that.
Jia Lian muttered, "Did I say don't bother with them..." Let him cast a sideways glance, bow his head and say nothing.
Jia Zheng sighed, "On the contrary, Lian'er sees things more clearly than I do."
Jia She snorted and said, "Forget it, I told him, he's not safe, I'm afraid he will do something wrong." Yin said, "It's her job as a queen to take care of our mother, and we should only be loyal to our courtiers." Saints are."
Such words are most useful to Jia Zheng, he coaxed him to nod in agreement.Jia Lian secretly laughed in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.
They didn't know that the Fang family in Jingzhong had just received a letter from Yangzhou at this time.Fang Jing said in the letter that Mr. Rong is indifferent, and he definitely does not want to get involved.If he does not help us, he will not help others or the son of Concubine Jia.Since my aunt is the queen of the middle palace, he does something by doing nothing.
A few days later, what was said in the letter was introduced to the palace, the queen thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "What Jinger said is that Duke Rong will help me if he does nothing." She didn't mention it because she cared more about Yuanchun.
Later these days, the Rongguo Mansion was busy preparing for Yingchun's marriage, and Jia Amnesty was very reluctant to let go, but it was really hard to hold on.He was busy and didn't know what was going on outside. Suddenly the doorman came to report, and there was a guest outside. The Taoist surname was Peng.
Only then did Jia Amnesty remember the idea he had given Jiang Wu, could it be that the sage agreed?Peng Xiaoliu's father is here?Because of the smile, he went to the front reception hall.
Peng Run was still dressed in blue men's clothing, standing calmly with his hands behind his back.
Jia Amnesty was taken aback for a moment, then came back to her senses and saluted her, "General Peng."
Peng Run stood quietly, neither saluted nor spoke.Jia Amnesty said nothing.
Half a day later, Peng Run said, "I have been able to see and hear since I was a child."
Jia Amnesty didn't know what to say, so he remained silent.
"That year in Taihu Water Village, I heard what you said to Village Master Li all night from outside."
Jia Amnesty smiled and only said one word. "Um."
After another half day of silence, Peng Run suddenly laughed and said, "I'm leaving."
Jia She said with a smile, "It's easy to go."
Half a month later, Jiang Wu was transferred to Jianrui Battalion Wing Commander.The special camp is a secret camp, so Peng Run's appointment has never been known.
The author has something to say: Ami Tofu, I will definitely code first and then play games tomorrow.

The lotus pods come out of the lotus flowers, and the osmanthus has already quietly exhaled its fragrance, and August is just around the corner.The day of Yingchun's wedding is getting closer and closer, Jia She is extremely unhappy, everyone in the Rong Mansion can see it, everyone holds their breath and concentrates, for fear of letting him push him.
Several gentlemen from Sanwei Bookstore came to see him that day.Last semester, Jia Shenan left, and he hired a chemistry teacher to substitute for the physics class. The German foreign monk Shanzweig also wanted to talk to him about the cement in the class, and the few of them finally got together in the study room all afternoon. .Before leaving, Ding Luban, who taught mechanics, quietly told Jia Amnesty that the principal of Wuyuan Medical College came to our school today, and he seemed to have something to do, so he dragged a few gentlemen to come back.Jia She couldn't sit still for a moment, lest the fox would have some rare news.I thought about it all night and finally went to school the next day.
Sure enough, Situ Yuan kept an ear in their school to repay the gods, but within half an hour, he wandered into Jia She's office.
Jia She sighed: "Isn't it good for you to manage the school in peace and benefit the country and the people?"
Situ Yuan smiled and said, "Haven't I been running the school in Ansheng?" Yin said, "There is good news, and you must be happy to hear it."
Jia She said with a snort, "It's just that my niece was diagnosed with a boy."
Situ Yuan waved his hand and said: "Master Jiang must have told you that, besides, that was originally my mother's concubine's prescription, how can it be bad?"
Jia She snorted again.
Situ Yuan picked up the tea, pretended to take a sip, and said, "I knew you wouldn't ask, that's all. I heard that your mother-in-law, Princess Changling, beat a girl to death the day before yesterday."
Jia She was shocked: "What does this mean?"
Situ Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, you have a smart mother."
It turned out that a few days ago, there was a pretty big maid in the Mo family who took advantage of the moonlight to deliver supper to the second master, who took advantage of the moonlight to take advantage of it. Unexpectedly, Mo Yu was concentrating on her homework and turned a blind eye.Seeing that he didn't take the bait, the servant girl was anxious, and also afraid that after a while, the young mistress would lose her way even more, so she went to the kitchen to sell money for spirits.Coincidentally, an old nanny next to Princess Changling also went to the kitchen to send a message, seeing her appearance, she became suspicious, and guessed about eight or nine points after a few words.He was so frightened that someone took the girl and turned back to the princess.The princess was furious when she heard the words, ordered the men in the mansion not to be disturbed, and beat the maid to death.
After hearing this, Jia Amnesty rejoiced that his mother-in-law was indeed a well-behaved person, and then raised his head and cast a glance at Situ Yuan: "You also know about such secrets?"
Situ Yuan smiled and said, "I know a lot of secrets in Beijing."
Jia She shook his head: "I'm so busy!" Suddenly remembered something, "Is your brother's Xiaowu helped by your people?"
Situ Yuan said, "Didn't Mr. She already guess it?"
"I said, why did you tell me this back then?" Jia Amnesty couldn't figure it out all the time, "Did you keep it quiet?"
Situ Yuan said: "Because Mr. Jiang is also a well-informed person, I fear that one day Mr. She will find out and misunderstand me."
Jia She shook his head: "It's not because of this, your methods are stronger than Junzhi, so it's not worth guarding against this."
Situ Yuan smiled and said: "Now my third nephew is strong and my fifth nephew is weak. I will help Xiao Wufang to make them fight for years."
Jia She looked at him for a long time: "Even if you have that idea, you can't even tell me the truth."
Situ Yuan smiled slightly, turned and left.
An extremely uncomfortable premonition rose from under Jia She's feet, and he slapped his thigh: This kind of creature with high EQ can't be dealt with by himself, so he should go find Xiao Qi.Thinking about it, his legs moved outward automatically.
Not long after arriving at Qi's mansion, seeing He's mansion beaming with joy, Jia She asked curiously, "Is your family also having a happy event?"
The youngest at the door smiled and said: "Our old man's filial piety has moved, and even the Taishang Laojun is grateful. Now our old man is going to return to vulgarity and go home next month."
Jia She laughed secretly, counting the days, Mr. Qi has been a monk for almost two years, and it's time to return to vulgarity.Because of a smile, he went in to find Qi Zhou.
Qia Qizhou laid out a table of sketches, it was better to look at which one, seeing him come in, he smiled and said, "Aren't you busy marrying a girl?"
Jia She sighed: "Don't mention sad things. How can a 17-year-old girl get married."
Qi Zhou shook his head and remained silent.
Jia Amnesty went to find some tea by himself, but when he turned around and saw Qi Zhou was still looking at the painting, he went straight to sell Situ Yuan, the counselor.
Qi Zhou frowned and said, "My surname is Hao? Could it be Mr. Hao Shi?"
Jia Amnesty just had a long conversation and was drinking tea when he immediately choked and coughed for a while.I thought, this guy must have sincerely asked me to listen.
"Tsk tsk, that's a strange person." Qi Zhou thought for a while and said, "Since he told you, there must be two things."
Jia Amnesty hurriedly asked which two.
"First, he is not going to keep it a secret for a long time, and sooner or later the world will know. But you are two years too early."
Jia She nodded: "I thought of that, what he was willing to tell me must not be a secret."
"Secondly, I'm afraid that he will plot when you will help this Mr. Hao. You act casually, and the loyal prince is good at calculating."
Jia She said with a snort, "I'm too lazy to meddle in his business."
"That's it," Qi Zhou said with a smile, "If you meet this Mr. Hao in the future and ask you to help him, and you only think that this is a trap of Yuan Wu, you will naturally stop jumping."
Jia Amnesty thought about it too, and it would be over if he ignored him.So he went back to the house with peace of mind and prepared to marry his daughter.
This time Rong Guogong married his only daughter, the dowry is naturally one of the best.Excluding what the Rongguo Mansion prepared, Jia She prepared millions of things for her.It was Jiang Wu who told him that Mo Kun's old man was originally a nerd, and Mo Yu was like his grandfather and Mr. Jiang, so he might not like the many gold and jewels piled up in the room.Therefore, Jia Amnesty picked some bulky and eye-catching ones that he had prepared and threw them into the dowry carrier for Yingchun for large packaging.There are also four pairs of treasure chests, with some valuable treasures and antiques simply wrapped in cotton silk cloth to save space; a stainless steel safe, with some heavy gold bars and some account books in it; a box of "receipts" in the safe ", neatly stacked the land deed and house deed of Zhuangzi's shop and many bank notes, which are the most valuable part of the whole dowry.The above boxes and cabinets were all made by Ding Luban himself. There is no lock or key, and no one else can open them at all.
These were not carried over from Dajiang Hutong until shortly before the wedding.After all, the real things are different from the black and white words on the list. They are big coral trees and belong to Dayu Mountain, and many of them are locked in boxes and cabinets so they can’t be seen.
"Less to say that the money on the books of Bihe Mansion has doubled, and I still don't know what's in those locked boxes."
Jia Lian said impatiently: "That's the father's self. He loves that son and daughter. No one cares about it."
Sister Feng said: "The second master is the master's support for the rest of his life, and he should have left more for the second master."
Jia Lian snorted and said, "How did I get my official seal?" Sister Feng wanted to argue, but he stopped first, "Did Father like Cong'er in his early years?"
Sister Feng was taken aback.
"Don't think about what your father should do. He never 'should'. He is only 'happy'." After finishing speaking, Jia Lian turned over and went to the other side.
Sister Feng, however, stretched her body for half a day without feeling tired, with at least 1 ideas in her mind tossing and turning.
Finally, Jia Lian got annoyed and sighed, "Are you still afraid that Zhuang Zhuang Ye Zi won't have any good things? Those are the master's eyeballs."
Sister Feng thought about it, didn't she?The old man loves his son and daughter the most, how can he not leave good things for them?Even the house in Dajiang Hutong will be reserved for Zhuang Zhuang sooner or later.He said with a smile: "I have never thought about the things of the master, but I am not fair for the second master."
Jia Lian said softly, "I actually thanked Second Grandma", and he went to bed first.

Naturally, these days are not just wasted.This time going south, Jia Amnesty sorted out the properties of the Lin family in the south, and slowly handed them over to Daiyu, letting her read the account books, come up with some ideas, and even go to her own Zhuangzi shop to have a look.By the way, Jia Amnesty taught her how to manage these external accounts, and how to relieve the farmers in case of natural disasters.Yingchun Jiang Zhao naturally listened, Jia Cong was too deaf, and occasionally complained that his father was partial, "I like Sister Lin the most".
Jia She was dumbfounded, he really preferred Daiyu to these children.After all, he came here to treat these children as close as possible, treating these little guys like a teacher.Teachers will always unconsciously favor bright students.Daiyu is obviously the kind of Goddess who learns to master both arts and sciences in later generations, which teacher doesn't like it.
He also likes Jiang Zhao.Although this child has only been with him recently, aside from being smart, he is still diligent and willing to learn.Contrary to Jia Cong who had to be chased by Jia Amnesty and begged him to be obedient, Jiang Zhao could always hear something that was not the main point, and asked many generalized topics.For example, in the year of a catastrophe, Jia Amnesty only told Daiyu to prepare some money, food and clothing for the farmers, but Jiang Zhao asked the hundreds of thousands of disaster victims how to resettle them.After talking about a lot of disaster relief methods for later generations, Daiyu asked if there was any way to control the river.
As a pure engineering student, Jia She had never studied river management in his two lifetimes.Only 300 years later, everyone knows that the destruction of vegetation in the Yellow River has seriously led to soil erosion.Therefore, he deliberately conducted an experiment on Zhuangzi. He washed ten barrels of water through two similar ditches, one with vegetation growing and the other with clear vegetation.Sure enough, a lot of soil was washed away from the place where the grass and trees were dug.Jia Amnesty pointed to the silt below and said, "That's why the river bed of the Yellow River is getting higher and higher year by year. As the river bed gets higher, the water storage capacity in the river will naturally decrease, and when it rains, it will overflow."
Jiang Zhao sighed, "It's so."
Pian Daiyu tilted her head and looked at it for a long time, and said: "It is not a day's cold to freeze three feet, and it is too late to start planting trees now."
Jia She said with a smile: "Planting trees is of course the root cause. However, in recent years, we have to treat the symptoms. The imperial court is building dams every year, or we can prepare some..." He recalled the sandbags mentioned on TV during the flood control period in later generations, and roughly said After looking for a while, he glanced at Jiang Zhao.Jiang Zhao understood that this thing was thought up by later generations, and he couldn't help but feel a little fascination on his face.
Only Yingchun has no interest in river and water regulation, and is quite bored, breaking branches from trees to make small baskets; Jia Cong went to the tree to bully the little bird in the morning.Jia She looked up to the sky—no one can expect the whole class to be ambitious, can they?
Going back today, Jia Amnesty seemed to have a second thought.He is often worried.Yingchun's son-in-law is an idiot, the two have common hobbies, and are planning to compile a complete chess game together; the in-law's family wants to use their own strength to show themselves in the court.Not to mention that his family background and appearance are not obvious, so there must not be many people who provoke him.The day of welcoming the spring should be no problem.This is a lot of trouble for Daiyu.On Jiang Wen's forehead was engraved with the words "Quasi Power Minister". Jiang Zhao was smart, and the two children had to have something else besides a little romance.But Jia Amnesty thought for a long time but couldn't figure out how to knead the two of them together.Looking at it now, Daiyu can comprehend things quite well. If you teach her more about everything, she may be able to help Jiang Zhao think of many ideas.From a selfish point of view, he also very much hoped that Daiyu's clever little brain would come in handy.After all, he still admired those smart and capable women in his previous life.
On this day, Jiang Zhao suddenly came to him.
It turned out that Jia She threw a bomb from 300 years later that day and left it alone, but Jiang Zhao kept thinking about it. "My little nephew just doesn't understand that our army is strong and horses are strong," Jiang Zhao said, "Why did foreigners invade the south of the Yangtze River after a hundred years of effort?"
Jia Amnesty was stunned for a while, thinking about the national humiliation where he came from, filled with emotion.Because he walked out of the room with his hands behind his back, he looked up at Fang Tian, who was surrounded by the courtyard above his head. After a long time, he finally sighed: "What's the use of a strong soldier and a strong horse. After a hundred years, we won't rely on that in war." Yin smiled wryly, "We have always been scholars, farmers, businessmen, It also emphasizes that men are superior to women. When we look down on other people's foreigners, the foreigners have already climbed over us."
Jiang Zhao said solemnly: "My nephew wanted to teach me the reason why I came here."
Jia Amnesty shook his head, and after a while he said, "People are talented, whether they are scholars, farmers, businessmen, men or women, Zhao'er thinks so or not."
Jiang Zhao nodded: "Naturally. No matter men or women, no matter what kind of people they are, there are people with extraordinary talents."
Jia She said: "There are few foreigners, but regardless of men and women, regardless of whether they are scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen, they all study. Then they choose their careers based on talent. Those who are good at business are businessmen, and those who are good at agriculture are farmers. They treat everyone equally. Therefore, many of their bright children have all studied industry. .”
Jiang Zhao was shocked: "Xue Gong?"
Jia She smiled wryly: "Our dynasties and dynasties have never looked down on craftsmen. Therefore, among the craftsmen, the bright children change their careers when they find opportunities. There are always a limited number of people who don't change their careers. They prefer foreigners to work hard. Workers can sharpen their tools and weapons. "
Jiang Zhao gasped.A long weapon is a strong soldier, he already knew this.
"I have a limited number of craftsmen's clever children, and I can make some crude firearms. People from foreign races, regardless of whether they are male or female, have more intelligent children who are capable workers. Gradually, firearms are ten times and a hundred times stronger than mine. After a hundred years, their firearms will be light. No matter whether men or women hold a thousand The enemy can be shot at a step away; my bow and arrow can only shoot a hundred steps. Those who have heavy artillery in their firearms can smash the city wall dozens of miles outside the city. Zhaoer, I know you are not convinced. Think about it. Thousand-step firearms, how can you win a war with others like this?"
No wonder you can win!It's not the massacre!Jiang Zhao was dumbfounded.After a long while, he gritted his teeth and said, "I will start the work with my father."
Jia She said with a smile: "Naturally, craftsmen are not the only ones. There is a kind of people called engineers, who concentrate on making tools. After the research is completed, craftsmen do it. There is also a kind of people called scientists, who specialize in researching natural objects for engineers. , so that engineers can develop instruments according to these."
Jiang Zhaoxian was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Uncle's physics!"
Jia She smiled lightly, broke a willow branch in the courtyard and said, "Do you think I am convinced?" Using the willow branch as a whip, he pointed at the sky, "Most monarchs and ministers in our country think that the sky is only this small, do you think I am willing?"
Jiang Zhao came over and bowed to Jia Amnesty, without saying a word, his eyes moistened slightly.
From now on, Jiang Zhao also studied physics with Jia She.Because Jia She was too lazy to deal with men and women at home, he often asked Daiyu to attend classes together. After all, the two of them would be a married couple in a few years.In class, the two of them often argued with each other, but it was also very interesting.
Afterwards, Li San sneaked out to meet Jia Amnesty twice.Jia Amnesty thought that one sheep is herding and two sheep are herding, so he seriously propagated the theory of surplus value and proletariat to him, sowing one more seed for later democracy.Li Sanke was much less worried than Jiang Zhao, and his blood boiled after hearing this, so he couldn't respect Jia She as the leader of the democratic church.
Seeing the days go by so fast, and the end of May is approaching, the few of them had to prepare to return to Beijing.Jia She slapped his head suddenly, pretending to have just remembered: "When we went back to Yangzhou, we forgot to go to Ganquan Academy. There was an old mountain chief named Shen Tong there."
Jiang Zhao remembered that meeting at first, and he said it a few times, but Jia She tried to evade it. Jiang Zhao thought he had something on his mind, so he didn't mention it anymore.In fact, Jia Amnesty was just afraid that what the old man might say to this kid would prevent him from brainwashing him.
Daiyu now knew that this old man was her father's guarantor, so she wept secretly.
Then they packed up their bags and went to Yangzhou.The day before his departure, Jia She had a sudden whim and wandered around the Panxiang Temple on Xuanmu Mountain. He never saw a nun named "Miaoyu", and he felt a bit regretful about missing a famous person.
Ganquan Academy has been established since the previous dynasty, and it has been up and down several times. It has produced hundreds of Jinshi, including three champions. Now it is in its heyday, with a large number of scholars from all over the world.When Jia Amnesty and others went to visit, the pomegranates in the courtyard were in full bloom, and the fragrance of gardenia wafted from them, which made people feel refreshed.
The old man Shen Tong was over sixty years old, with white beard and hair, and an extremely dignified gentleman's face, which was the type that Jia She could not deal with the most.Therefore, after meeting for a few pleasantries, he pushed Jiang Zhao towards the old man: "This is the eldest son of Jiang Wen, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, famous, and he will be eighteen in a few months. Husband-in-law."
Shen Tong was overjoyed.At first, he got a letter from Cheng Lin in Beijing, saying that Duke Rong had chosen Mr. Jiang's eldest son as his son-in-law for Lin Hai's daughter, but he still didn't believe it.Why didn't the Jia family leave such good things to their daughters?Later, there was a scripture saying that Duke Rong went south to worship his ancestors, and he wanted to bring Mr. Jiang to visit him, so he believed it a little.However, he waited from early spring to late spring, but he didn't see anyone, thinking that something happened.Sure enough, I saw someone coming today, and I couldn't help but praise: "You have eyes like those at the end of the sea!"
The corner of Jia She's mouth twitched: It's obvious that he was the one chosen by the master, how could he become a man with discernment—although it's no fun to care about the dead.
Shen Tong and Jiang Zhao's grandfather were also very familiar in the early years. When Jiang Zhao saw the ceremony, the old and the young naturally talked about "The Doctrine of the Mean" and "The Great Learning".Jia She and his son had nothing to do, and they were not the kind of people who were willing to put up with boredom and pretend to be gentle, so they told Shen Tong that they were rude, and went for a stroll outside.
Jia Cong had never been to an academy; Jia She bought tickets to two or three ancient academies when he was traveling in his previous life, but it was just a vain scene.Therefore, both father and father found it fresh and interesting, seeing that all the scholars who came and went were well-mannered, and they were very pleasing to the eye.Jia She asked in a low voice, "Cong'er, do you want to study in the academy?"
Jia Cong frowned, and said bluntly, "No."
Jia She said with a smile: "Aren't you envious of these handsome brothers?"
Jia Cong said honestly: "I'm envious. I'm just envious. I don't want to study every day. Brother Jiang said that they only have to rest for half a month in school. Besides, the people in their academy are very gentle, and they might not even be able to play Cuju. It’s all out of place.”
Jia She smiled and pinched his little cheek: "That's right! I, Cong'er, don't want to work so hard."
But this was heard by a scholar next to him, and he interjected: "Your Excellency, if you don't have ten years of hard work, how can you get nominated for the gold list?"
Jia She said with a smile: "I didn't force my son to be nominated for the Gold List, so naturally there is no need to suffer."
The scholar was a bit interesting, and said strangely: "Everyone expects their son to become a dragon, so you don't want your son to become a man?"
Jia She said: "Of course I'm willing. It's just that there is a long way to become a man. If he doesn't like reading, why bother to force him. It's better to find something he likes. Even if he is stubborn, it's okay to be stubborn. He's still young, I hope he eats and sleeps well, and we'll talk about it in three to five years."
He said while Jia Cong nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
The scholar said: "It's just that in three or five years time, others may finish reading the Four Books and Five Classics."
Jia She only shook his head: "There are mountain people outside the mountains, and we are just as good as most people in the world. Why bother to compare with those outstanding people! No one is exhausted. Ordinary talents, ordinary talents, ordinary characters, the same Have fun."
The scholar suddenly laughed and said: "I thought that the honorable master wanted to say that the talent is ordinary and the talent is ordinary, but the character is not ordinary."
Jia She also smiled: "You are a scholar who is sincerely joking. Being a good character is the most tiring thing. I am just an ordinary man. Is it worthwhile to let the child work hard to become a gentleman?"
The scholar nodded: "Sir, it's not uncommon to do so."
Jia She waved his hands again and again: "Mo Ti, I have been vulgar in everything in my life, except that I don't like to put gold on my face."
The scholar laughed, but asked the gentleman's name.
Jia Sheyin said: "The surname is Jia, the name She is Enhou, and the surname is from Jinling."
The scholar cupped his hands and said, "Xiaosheng's surname is Fang and his name is Jing. There is no word yet. He is from Yangzhou."
Jia Cong also cupped his hands and said, "The boy's surname is Jia Mingcong, from Jinling. Father hasn't chosen the name yet."
The three met by chance and passed by.
After a long time, Jia Amnesty rubbed his head and said to himself, "It seems like I've heard the name Fang Jing before."
They wandered around the academy a few times, and Jiang Zhao had already been praised countless times by Old Master Shen.
That night, she took Daiyu to Yingchun and went to the Shen family for a home banquet. Mrs. Shen naturally praised her two times when she saw her, so Daiyu's life was settled.
Two days later, Jia Amnesty led the four children and went to the capital with two boats of Jiangnan soil instruments, which were actually prepared as dowries for the two girls.
The author has something to say: Emma, today is a bit of a stretch, playing games is too much of a waste of time, but we just can't help it ==
78
It is said that Jia Amnesty led a few children to travel around the south of the Yangtze River and finally returned to Beijing, without talking all the way.When they left the boat and landed on the shore this day, Jia Lian and the stewards of Jiang's family had been waiting for a long time. They met each other, chatted a few gossips, and went back to their homes.On the way, Jia Lian told him that Jiang Wu was already waiting in his study.
Jia She frowned, "Didn't the letter a few days ago say that everything is safe? There is something wrong in Beijing."
Jia Lian smiled wryly, "I didn't understand it in the letter, but my father knew about it when he saw Uncle Jiang."
When the group returned to the mansion, Jia Amnesty led the children to visit Jia's mother first, and told Jia Lian, "He has been waiting for so long anyway, so he is not afraid to wait a little longer." Jia Lian still smiled wryly.It happened that Sister Feng was in Jiamu's yard, so I asked you to greet me by the way.
When Jia Amnesty came out of Jia Mu's courtyard and saw Mrs. Xing again, he went straight to the study.
Just after entering the door, I heard Jiang Wu ordering: "Prepare dinner for me and your master later, and bring it directly here."
Yin scolded with a smile: "Think this is your home." He lifted up the soft curtain of lotus root color and sprinkled flowers to come in, and said back, "It's already summer, change the curtain to a cooler color, whatever the color of water, frost or white is good." The servant answered.
I saw Jiang Wu slumped on his new rattan chair and said weakly: "The Duke of the country is coming back! The last general thinks that you have been hooked by the fisherman of the water village."
Jia Amnesty snorted, just as someone brought tea to the table, he drank two cups first, then looked at Jiang Wu: "Is there something going on in the court again? It's only been a few days."
Seeing that Wang Enqin had kicked him out, Jiang Wu closed the door smoothly, then got up and walked over to the seat opposite Jia She, and lazily said: "The second child has fallen out of favor because his grandfather is the old man of Wu Ge. The old man Si doesn't know if it's true cleverness or fake intentions, he recites poems and composes all day long, looks like a poet and prince, and his mother's family doesn't show it anyway. Dishonest. The old eight and the old nine are still breastfeeding, and the mother's house is also moving. Two more princes have been diagnosed in the palace. The one in Su Guiren's belly is about the tenth. Your concubine Jia will give birth to the old one in a few months eleven."
Jia Amnesty's scalp was numb. "Who knows if it's a boy or a girl until it's born, it's annoying." The damned five foxes really have a secret recipe for having children?Hundreds of years from now you won't be sure about this.
"This one will definitely be born in peace. Hasn't there been a baby in the palace since the Queen Mother didn't care about it?" Jiang Wu gloated and leaned in front of him, shaking the teacup, "Everyone is around you now. The second child is getting married to your Justin."
Jia She rolled his eyes and said, "After talking for a long time, it's nothing more than the third child and the fifth child fighting."
Jiang Wu nodded: "The third child is much more capable than the fifth child, and he is also the son of the eldest son. It is said that the fifth child can't beat the third child. But now the two of them are evenly matched on the surface, but the fifth child is more sacred. , the sages often praised him for being smart and pure and filial."
Jia She said with a smile: "It's not surprising. When the old sage was in his prime, he loved his stupid sons more?" He knew that it must be Situ Yuan's counselor who helped him.Situ Yuan has been fighting with the saint for so many years, it is said that the one who knows a person best is not his friend but his enemy, and it is not a piece of cake for him to teach Xiaowu to please the saint.
Jiang Wu smiled wryly and said: "A while ago, the sage finally found evidence to get General He from the Jianrui Camp down. At the court meeting, the Third Prince recommended me."
Jia She said casually: "Well, you will get more salary too."
Jiang Wu went on to say, "The sage agrees."
"Congratulations."
"The saint asked me to choose someone to take over the special battalion."
"Okay...wait! What?" Jia Shexuan poured out the tea in his hand, "You are going to change places, and you have to hand over the special battalion?"
Jiang Wudao: "Yes."
"The sage also asked you to pick someone yourself?"
Jiang Wu smiled wryly, "If not, why am I so worried."
Jia She blurted out: "The sage is too wicked!" This man is too difficult to pick.Not only must they be able to suppress the group of people in the special camp, but they must also be impartial and non-partisan, and the saint must be at ease.The most terrible thing is that his two selfish intentions are to poach the emperor's corner and privatize the special operations. "Is there anyone in your mind?"
Jiang Wu simply said: "No." He poured himself a cup of tea, and said after a while, "He is a saint, but also his own, and can manage the special camp, no. Therefore, I came to find you."
Jia She scolded, "I don't know any generals!"
"Let you come up with other ideas, maybe I won't be transferred to another place for the time being." Jiang Wu glanced at him, "Give me an extra year or two, and let me teach the people behind. Peng Xiaoliu is a scumbag .”
Jia She then understood that he was unwilling to hand over the special battalion now, and he was secretly happy.Yin thought for a while: "I'm afraid I can't. However, I have a good candidate in my heart. It depends on whether the saint dares to use it."
Jiang Wu was overjoyed: "I knew you had an idea!"
Jia Amnesty smiled slightly: "Peng Run."
Jiang Wu was taken aback.
"Able to be civil and military, wise and resourceful, able to manage the special camp, she is a female general and does not want to marry, so the saint is at ease—more at ease than using her brother, and more at ease than you. Your special camp is a secret camp anyway. Those old guys in court don't know." Jia She looked sideways out of the window, the sky was still bright, "After all the troubles in Jiangnan last time, she is now her own."
Jiang Wu was stunned for a long time after hearing this: "...she is a woman..." After all, with the matter of Mr. Qi, it is obvious that this aunt is of the same kind as his group.
Jia Amnesty turned his face and smiled again: "If she hands over this battalion to Peng Xiaoliu in the future, she can also build a special battalion for female soldiers, and they can often win by surprise compared to male soldiers in battle." He suddenly laughed, "I've even thought of a name, it's called the Fire Phoenix Women's Special Battalion."
After a while, Jiang Wu suddenly said: "Enhou, I always feel that you have other intentions in it."
Jia She said with a smile: "Don't you think that one more special battalion will give us more security? I don't think any of these princes can be relied on."
Jiang Wu frowned, and whispered for half a day, "Where's the one in your niece's stomach?"
Jia She shook his head again and again: "You know what our family was like a few years ago. Those who went to the palace to seek wealth and honor at that time, even if they were talented, they didn't have great wisdom, at least they didn't know how to choose. I dare not make her the queen mother, The relatives are still not sure what will happen."
Jiang Wu nodded and sighed: "I hope the sage can choose a good one." After saying that, he frowned.
The two were stunned for a while, Jiang Wu suddenly said: "It's still early, I'll go back to the mansion for dinner."
Jia She snorted, "Let's go! I haven't seen my Little Yezi yet."
Jiang Wu smiled and picked up his feet and walked away, Jia She immediately asked Xiao Yezi Zhuang Zhuang to come over.
After a while, I heard Xiao Yezi's voice calling "Grandfather, Grandfather" at the door, and the corners of Jia She's mouth immediately grinned. "My little Ye Zi!" Seeing the door curtain move, Xiao Ye Zi got in and rushed towards Jia She.Jia She hurriedly knelt down and hugged him upright, and shouted, "I miss my grandfather!"
Xiao Ye Zi rubbed his arms around his neck: "Grandpa is back! Mom wants me to learn how to tie the net! Xiao Ye Zi doesn't want to learn!"
Jia She said casually: "If you don't want to learn, then don't! Our Little Yezi is still young, let's talk about it in two years." Suddenly remembered, this little fat girl is seven years old!No wonder it's so heavy handed.Can't help being frustrated, how can a child grow up so fast.
Xiao Ye Zi cheered: "I knew that grandfather is the best!" Then asked whether Ke had brought a gift to Xiao Ye Zi.
Jia She said with a smile: "I have brought quite a few, and they are piled up in that box. Let's pick the small leaves first when I pack them up tomorrow!"
Xiao Ye Zi said crisply: "Okay!"
Just talking, the wet nurse hugged little Jia Zhuo and came in to say hello.
Jia Zhuo can talk a lot now, and when he saw Jia She, he called "grandfather" as ordered, but he was not affectionate, and looked around with his bright black eyes.
Jia Amnesty knew that after five months, the child had forgotten himself.He hurriedly reached out to take it over and asked with a smile, "Don't Zhuang Zhuang remember your grandfather?"
Zhuang Zhuang called out "grandfather" again, Jia Amnesty was dissatisfied, and shook his eldest grandson on his shoulder a few times.
Zhuang Zhuang immediately became excited, laughed and screamed, and slapped his grandfather's big hand with his two little paws.
Jia Amnesty also became excited, and walked around the room several times against him, while Xiao Ye Zi clapped her hands to join in the fun.After wandering around, he hugged Zhuang Zhuang back into his arms. The kid was so happy that he arched Jia She's neck, and he muttered "Grandfather, Grandfather".
Jia Amnesty laughed loudly: "Little ancestor, I think it's my grandfather this time."
Xiao Ye Zi said from the side: "Brother remembered, it was my grandfather who was stubborn against him every day in the past."
Jia She said with a smile, "Isn't it? How can your father have such leisure time?"
The grandparents and grandchildren had another meeting. Baoyu and the others came to pay their respects, and Jia Zheng also went down to the Yamen.The two brothers met each other, said a few words hastily, and had their own dinner.
After dinner, after a short rest, Jia Zheng and Jia Lian came to Jia Amnesty's study to talk about things.
It turns out that these days, the princes and mothers are all trying to win over the two of them, and even Yuan Chun in the palace has received a lot of care, especially the empress arranged her very well.Jia Zheng was originally a scholar, and he had no intention of letting the son of Yuanchun take over the heir, but he was willing to support the son of the middle palace, so he discussed with Jia She.
Jia She said "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
It turned out that he met a scholar named Fang Jing at Ganquan Academy in Yangzhou the month before last, he was quite familiar to his ears that day, and now he remembered it.Isn't it the name of the queen's nephew?Among the people who proposed to marry Daiyu that day, he was the only one who looked the most reliable, and he was the matchmaker entrusted to the old concubine Beijing.
Jia She thought to himself, he didn't know whether the kid was on purpose or not, so he ignored him anyway.Because he told Jia Zheng and Jia Lian: "Hide as far away as possible. You must never get involved in the matter of seizing the heir. Don't forget that saints are not born in the middle palace. Look at how the Yizhong princes are now. end?"
Jia Zheng shuddered when he said that.
Jia Lian muttered, "Did I say don't bother with them..." Let him cast a sideways glance, bow his head and say nothing.
Jia Zheng sighed, "On the contrary, Lian'er sees things more clearly than I do."
Jia She snorted and said, "Forget it, I told him, he's not safe, I'm afraid he will do something wrong." Yin said, "It's her job as a queen to take care of our mother, and we should only be loyal to our courtiers." Saints are."
Such words are most useful to Jia Zheng, he coaxed him to nod in agreement.Jia Lian secretly laughed in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.
They didn't know that the Fang family in Jingzhong had just received a letter from Yangzhou at this time.Fang Jing said in the letter that Mr. Rong is indifferent, and he definitely does not want to get involved.If he does not help us, he will not help others or the son of Concubine Jia.Since my aunt is the queen of the middle palace, he does something by doing nothing.
A few days later, what was said in the letter was introduced to the palace, the queen thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "What Jinger said is that Duke Rong will help me if he does nothing." She didn't mention it because she cared more about Yuanchun.
Later these days, the Rongguo Mansion was busy preparing for Yingchun's marriage, and Jia Amnesty was very reluctant to let go, but it was really hard to hold on.He was busy and didn't know what was going on outside. Suddenly the doorman came to report, and there was a guest outside. The Taoist surname was Peng.
Only then did Jia Amnesty remember the idea he had given Jiang Wu, could it be that the sage agreed?Peng Xiaoliu's father is here?Because of the smile, he went to the front reception hall.
Peng Run was still dressed in blue men's clothing, standing calmly with his hands behind his back.
Jia Amnesty was taken aback for a moment, then came back to her senses and saluted her, "General Peng."
Peng Run stood quietly, neither saluted nor spoke.Jia Amnesty said nothing.
Half a day later, Peng Run said, "I have been able to see and hear since I was a child."
Jia Amnesty didn't know what to say, so he remained silent.
"That year in Taihu Water Village, I heard what you said to Village Master Li all night from outside."
Jia Amnesty smiled and only said one word. "Um."
After another half day of silence, Peng Run suddenly laughed and said, "I'm leaving."
Jia She said with a smile, "It's easy to go."
Half a month later, Jiang Wu was transferred to Jianrui Battalion Wing Commander.The special camp is a secret camp, so Peng Run's appointment has never been known.
The author has something to say: Ami Tofu, I will definitely code first and then play games tomorrow.

The lotus pods come out of the lotus flowers, and the osmanthus has already quietly exhaled its fragrance, and August is just around the corner.The day of Yingchun's wedding is getting closer and closer, Jia She is extremely unhappy, everyone in the Rong Mansion can see it, everyone holds their breath and concentrates, for fear of letting him push him.
Several gentlemen from Sanwei Bookstore came to see him that day.Last semester, Jia Shenan left, and he hired a chemistry teacher to substitute for the physics class. The German foreign monk Shanzweig also wanted to talk to him about the cement in the class, and the few of them finally got together in the study room all afternoon. .Before leaving, Ding Luban, who taught mechanics, quietly told Jia Amnesty that the principal of Wuyuan Medical College came to our school today, and he seemed to have something to do, so he dragged a few gentlemen to come back.Jia She couldn't sit still for a moment, lest the fox would have some rare news.I thought about it all night and finally went to school the next day.
Sure enough, Situ Yuan kept an ear in their school to repay the gods, but within half an hour, he wandered into Jia She's office.
Jia She sighed: "Isn't it good for you to manage the school in peace and benefit the country and the people?"
Situ Yuan smiled and said, "Haven't I been running the school in Ansheng?" Yin said, "There is good news, and you must be happy to hear it."
Jia She said with a snort, "It's just that my niece was diagnosed with a boy."
Situ Yuan waved his hand and said: "Master Jiang must have told you that, besides, that was originally my mother's concubine's prescription, how can it be bad?"
Jia She snorted again.
Situ Yuan picked up the tea, pretended to take a sip, and said, "I knew you wouldn't ask, that's all. I heard that your mother-in-law, Princess Changling, beat a girl to death the day before yesterday."
Jia She was shocked: "What does this mean?"
Situ Yuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, you have a smart mother."
It turned out that a few days ago, there was a pretty big maid in the Mo family who took advantage of the moonlight to deliver supper to the second master, who took advantage of the moonlight to take advantage of it. Unexpectedly, Mo Yu was concentrating on her homework and turned a blind eye.Seeing that he didn't take the bait, the servant girl was anxious, and also afraid that after a while, the young mistress would lose her way even more, so she went to the kitchen to sell money for spirits.Coincidentally, an old nanny next to Princess Changling also went to the kitchen to send a message, seeing her appearance, she became suspicious, and guessed about eight or nine points after a few words.He was so frightened that someone took the girl and turned back to the princess.The princess was furious when she heard the words, ordered the men in the mansion not to be disturbed, and beat the maid to death.
After hearing this, Jia Amnesty rejoiced that his mother-in-law was indeed a well-behaved person, and then raised his head and cast a glance at Situ Yuan: "You also know about such secrets?"
Situ Yuan smiled and said, "I know a lot of secrets in Beijing."
Jia She shook his head: "I'm so busy!" Suddenly remembered something, "Is your brother's Xiaowu helped by your people?"
Situ Yuan said, "Didn't Mr. She already guess it?"
"I said, why did you tell me this back then?" Jia Amnesty couldn't figure it out all the time, "Did you keep it quiet?"
Situ Yuan said: "Because Mr. Jiang is also a well-informed person, I fear that one day Mr. She will find out and misunderstand me."
Jia She shook his head: "It's not because of this, your methods are stronger than Junzhi, so it's not worth guarding against this."
Situ Yuan smiled and said: "Now my third nephew is strong and my fifth nephew is weak. I will help Xiao Wufang to make them fight for years."
Jia She looked at him for a long time: "Even if you have that idea, you can't even tell me the truth."
Situ Yuan smiled slightly, turned and left.
An extremely uncomfortable premonition rose from under Jia She's feet, and he slapped his thigh: This kind of creature with high EQ can't be dealt with by himself, so he should go find Xiao Qi.Thinking about it, his legs moved outward automatically.
Not long after arriving at Qi's mansion, seeing He's mansion beaming with joy, Jia She asked curiously, "Is your family also having a happy event?"
The youngest at the door smiled and said: "Our old man's filial piety has moved, and even the Taishang Laojun is grateful. Now our old man is going to return to vulgarity and go home next month."
Jia She laughed secretly, counting the days, Mr. Qi has been a monk for almost two years, and it's time to return to vulgarity.Because of a smile, he went in to find Qi Zhou.
Qia Qizhou laid out a table of sketches, it was better to look at which one, seeing him come in, he smiled and said, "Aren't you busy marrying a girl?"
Jia She sighed: "Don't mention sad things. How can a 17-year-old girl get married."
Qi Zhou shook his head and remained silent.
Jia Amnesty went to find some tea by himself, but when he turned around and saw Qi Zhou was still looking at the painting, he went straight to sell Situ Yuan, the counselor.
Qi Zhou frowned and said, "My surname is Hao? Could it be Mr. Hao Shi?"
Jia Amnesty just had a long conversation and was drinking tea when he immediately choked and coughed for a while.I thought, this guy must have sincerely asked me to listen.
"Tsk tsk, that's a strange person." Qi Zhou thought for a while and said, "Since he told you, there must be two things."
Jia Amnesty hurriedly asked which two.
"First, he is not going to keep it a secret for a long time, and sooner or later the world will know. But you are two years too early."
Jia She nodded: "I thought of that, what he was willing to tell me must not be a secret."
"Secondly, I'm afraid that he will plot when you will help this Mr. Hao. You act casually, and the loyal prince is good at calculating."
Jia She said with a snort, "I'm too lazy to meddle in his business."
"That's it," Qi Zhou said with a smile, "If you meet this Mr. Hao in the future and ask you to help him, and you only think that this is a trap of Yuan Wu, you will naturally stop jumping."
Jia Amnesty thought about it too, and it would be over if he ignored him.So he went back to the house with peace of mind and prepared to marry his daughter.
This time Rong Guogong married his only daughter, the dowry is naturally one of the best.Excluding what the Rongguo Mansion prepared, Jia She prepared millions of things for her.It was Jiang Wu who told him that Mo Kun's old man was originally a nerd, and Mo Yu was like his grandfather and Mr. Jiang, so he might not like the many gold and jewels piled up in the room.Therefore, Jia Amnesty picked some bulky and eye-catching ones that he had prepared and threw them into the dowry carrier for Yingchun for large packaging.There are also four pairs of treasure chests, with some valuable treasures and antiques simply wrapped in cotton silk cloth to save space; a stainless steel safe, with some heavy gold bars and some account books in it; a box of "receipts" in the safe ", neatly stacked the land deed and house deed of Zhuangzi's shop and many bank notes, which are the most valuable part of the whole dowry.The above boxes and cabinets were all made by Ding Luban himself. There is no lock or key, and no one else can open them at all.
These were not carried over from Dajiang Hutong until shortly before the wedding.After all, the real things are different from the black and white words on the list. They are big coral trees and belong to Dayu Mountain, and many of them are locked in boxes and cabinets so they can’t be seen.
"Less to say that the money on the books of Bihe Mansion has doubled, and I still don't know what's in those locked boxes."
Jia Lian said impatiently: "That's the father's self. He loves that son and daughter. No one cares about it."
Sister Feng said: "The second master is the master's support for the rest of his life, and he should have left more for the second master."
Jia Lian snorted and said, "How did I get my official seal?" Sister Feng wanted to argue, but he stopped first, "Did Father like Cong'er in his early years?"
Sister Feng was taken aback.
"Don't think about what your father should do. He never 'should'. He is only 'happy'." After finishing speaking, Jia Lian turned over and went to the other side.
Sister Feng, however, stretched her body for half a day without feeling tired, with at least 1 ideas in her mind tossing and turning.
Finally, Jia Lian got annoyed and sighed, "Are you still afraid that Zhuang Zhuang Ye Zi won't have any good things? Those are the master's eyeballs."
Sister Feng thought about it, didn't she?The old man loves his son and daughter the most, how can he not leave good things for them?Even the house in Dajiang Hutong will be reserved for Zhuang Zhuang sooner or later.He said with a smile: "I have never thought about the things of the master, but I am not fair for the second master."
Jia Lian said softly, "I actually thanked Second Grandma", and he went to bed first.
