[Comprehensive] Master of Merit

It’s not that Youshi doesn’t complain, she fills up the house all by herself, her family background is mediocre and she has no children, her husband is greedy for ~girls~ she loves the new and dislikes the old, she makes a lot of Yingying Yanyan, she doesn’t even want to face her daughter-in-law, Youshi There is nothing to do.

Her biggest expression was that Qin Keqing pretended to be sick at the funeral.

The master suddenly didn't work there, and she felt a little joy in her heart besides worrying.But Jia Zhen has a lot of prestige, especially after he had a fit, You Shi still had to cry.

In the past, there were many silver guns washed with blood, how could one have imagined that there would be such a catastrophe today?

Jia Zhen was very annoyed. After scolding many people, she finally remembered her son, Brother Rong, and sent someone to call... Brother Rong is very airy now, but what can he do?It's not that you have to be patient.

Seeing that the master's anger had turned, You Shi still had some gloating thoughts: she was attacked once, and she didn't want others to suffer anything.

Who would have thought that Brother Rong's words would make the master smash things when he came, and what happened after that made her even more unbelievable!

Huo Mian threw his foot to the corner of the wall, only the small porcelain pillow was left in his hand, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he moved his fingers lightly, and there were bursts of teeth-stinging sounds, the porcelain pillow turned into porcelain powder in response, and fell to the ground It fell to the ground and piled up into a ball.

Everyone is dumbfounded.Rao is the well-informed Jia Zhen, whose temples are twitching on both sides.

Huo Mian copied a chair and sat in front of Jia Zhen's bed, "I have something to say to the master."

Jia Zhen was quite cooperative, and waved her hand, "You all go down."

Holding the handkerchief, Youshi looked at the master several times, but didn't get any response, so he reluctantly left with the girls and women.

For some reason, facing this son now, Jia Zhen couldn't help feeling guilty: Qin Keqing had left him behind long ago... He would never admit that Brother Rong stimulated him by pinching the porcelain pillow.

But these emotions didn't affect him for too long, he could feel that Brother Rong had something important to tell him when he looked back.

From Huo Mian's point of view, Jia Zhen probably guessed what he meant by acting as if she was facing a formidable enemy after feeling guilty.

Huo Mian also cut straight to the point, "Master, it's hard work. In the past, something bad happened to His Royal Highness. We have great-grandfather and great-uncle in our family, so we don't hurt our vitality. It's hard to say. The new king has been on the throne for some years, the old lady and the old man must have seen that if our family doesn't fight hard, there is no hope of recovery, so the old man... took the risk, didn't he?"

Although Brother Rong was definitely not stupid before, he was definitely confused about the court affairs.Jia Zhen was very surprised, "How did you think of this?"

In fact, what he really wanted to ask was: Brother Rong, what did you go through to become so enlightened?

Huo Mian deliberately teased him, "Second Uncle Bao can be born extraordinary, why can't I?" He took advantage of the situation and explained, "Uncle Bao was born with visions, but there are some explanations. Master, just think about it, how can such a person be reborn In our house?"

Having said that, he deliberately left some time for Jia Zhen to digest.

After waiting for half a stick of incense, Huo Mian continued to tell the truth, "The prince of the country spent half his life in the army, guarding the soil and protecting the family, and he also valued love and righteousness and formed many good relationships... The most precious thing left by the old man to his children and grandchildren can be It’s not the family fortune, but the infinite merits. Even if the previous generation of our family chose the wrong person, as long as we honestly admit our mistakes and don’t mess around, the virtues of our ancestors are enough to fool three generations of prosperity and safety.”

Jia Zhen raised her head abruptly, her pupils constricted, "What?!" How could the implication not be heard?Brother Rong just said, this torment of yours almost ruined Yin De.

Huo Mian was always happy to watch Jia Zhen make jokes, who made the head of this girl turn red?

"I have handed in the nomination certificate, so I can't get off the boat. If the master wants to give up halfway, he has to agree with Mr. Wang. In the past, everything should be dominated by our family. Feng Shui took turns. The Wang family finally turned over and suppressed our family. Of course we have to come out." Get out of the past."

Jia Zhen slapped the bed board, "...Missing me!"

Who missed you?Why don't you make it clear?Huo Mian smiled, "Who can use a knife to kill you if the master is not tempted? Sometimes the master is willful and willful, and sometimes he speaks insincerely, so he deserves to die like this." He stood up and patted Jia Zhen on the shoulder. Take care of yourself. Where did Yin De come from, master, think about it. I can't save you..." After finishing speaking, he floated away.

Jia Zhen saw Brother Rong's figure move slightly, and then she dodged out the door to disappear.

Anger, regret and fear were intertwined, and for a moment he couldn't tell which one was on top.

Today's words seem to have a good effect, but Huo Mian does not believe that the dignified head of the Jia family will be easily intimidated by these words, and he is afraid that he will revert to his old ways after a while.

In the Jia family, only Jia Zhen has such a heroic appearance, but unfortunately the time, place and people are not in touch with each other, and the tragic ending is almost doomed.

Jia Zhen is hopeless, so what about Jia Jing?Huo Mian thought that if he had the chance, he would have to get in touch with this cheap grandfather in person.

It is said that Jia Zhen was "sick" for one day at most, and the next day she dealt with various affairs as usual: building the garden, the three literati were not in charge, and Jia Lian alone could not support such a large stall.

Jia Zhen and Jia Lian had a little bit of personal experience: Brother Rong was different from the past, so they didn't arrange any tasks for Huo Mian, and Huo Mian, who had nothing to do, went out of the house to visit Jia Jing who was practicing in a Taoist temple.

Jia Jing did not turn a blind eye this time: in the past, when Jia Zhen and Jia Rong and his son came to visit, they might have been turned away.

When grandparents and grandchildren met, Jia Jing first looked at Huo Mian carefully, and then smiled, "I heard that you have improved these days, is it amazing?"

Huo Mian found it strange that this old man didn't have capable eyes and ears.He casually replied: "It's okay."

Jia Jing pointed at the center of his eyebrows, "What did you see?"

Huo Mian smiled without saying a word.

"To die is to ruin the family." Jia Jing seemed quite open-minded, "Your old man is very promising, and I'm afraid he can't be saved now. It's a pity for your daughter-in-law." Jia Jing sighed.

Huo Mian nodded, "Take advantage of others, but don't protect them well, but there will be retribution."

"That's the reason!" Jia Jing smiled wryly, "Your daughter-in-law's natal family...the real natal family did not die."

Not only is it not dead, but it is also worthy of reuse.There is nothing that he cannot know with kryptonite merit, if there is, krypton a little more.

After the prince of the previous generation was abolished, he was named Yizhong King, because his confidant, Qin Kedi, had already died—this confidant, beloved general was Qin Keqing's uncle, and the deposed prince was only imprisoned in the palace for a period of time , so he asked his father to pack and send him to the hastily rebuilt Yizhong Palace, and at the same time changed from confinement to house arrest.

After changing to house arrest, King Yizhong can not only see his wife and children at any time, but also see his former staff, relatives and friends.

I thought that the deposed prince would end his life like this, but he never expected that His Highness was quite ambitious, and he decided to become a monk within a month, but he died within three months after moving to the royal family's ancestral temple...

After abolishing the prince, the Holy Majesty regretted it after being furious, and waited for the son who had loved him for many years to be captured obediently and even willingly to be slaughtered. I am still too arbitrary, but the arrow is on the line... The prince conspired against him. The Holy Majesty summoned the imperial army to take down the prince in this name, and now he can't go back on his word.

Afterwards, cleaning up the prince's remnants, his good sons jumped up and down, and they were extremely active, wishing to put their brother-in-law to death immediately, the Holy One was so angry that half of his body went numb.

Coupled with the various evidence gradually collected by his confidants, the Holy Majesty can no longer deceive himself: the prince has no disobedience.Just when the Holy One knew that he had failed his most beloved son and was thinking about how to make it up, news came from his confidant that King Yizhong was going to become a monk.

This time the Holy Majesty couldn't sit still any longer, and personally summoned his son, trying to dispel his thoughts.

I remember that the abolished prince choked the emperor back with a single sentence: If the father really loves his son, let him live the rest of his life quietly.

The Holy Majesty didn't close his eyes all night, and it was the empress who personally persuaded him: let's go along with him at this time, the son has been wronged, and it is right to lose his temper.

The empress is the successor of the emperor, and the deposed prince was born of the late Yuan empress.But when she persuaded the Holy Majesty later, her own son had just learned how to crawl. Even if she had a "motherly heart", she had to wait until her son was ten years old to be sure he could stand up. Therefore, she said that she had bad intentions for the abolished prince. Really not.

The Holy One thought so too, let's follow his son first.Never expected that the deposed prince Yizhong Wang, who was in his prime, would pass away due to a sudden illness.

The Holy Majesty fainted when he heard the news, and even fell ill for a month.Afterwards, the wife and son of the abolished crown prince were put on the apex of the Holy Majesty's heart, which was too late to regret.

The eldest son of the abolished prince, as No. 1 among the emperor's grandsons, was deeply loved by his grandfather, grew up peacefully, and more smoothly took over his father's throne.His Majesty's guilt didn't stop there. He turned a blind eye when he found out that the old prince loved to rescue Qin Kedi's son and even his niece by loyal servants.

A few years later, news came from the secret guard that the incognito son of Qin Kedi was very talented, and the Holy One sent someone to take the school exam and put him next to the baby emperor's grandson as a companion and guard.

The Holy Majesty's move was tantamount to giving a reassurance. More than ten years later, Jia Zhen married Qin Keqing to her son with peace of mind.

In short, Qin Keqing's big hole is not her background, but Qin Keqing's cousin, Qin Feng, who has become a fifth-rank general and is now fighting against foreign enemies in the southwest.

The transportation in the southwest is inconvenient, and the news is not so well-informed. When this real young talent learns the cause of his cousin's death, even if the two brothers and sisters have no contact at all, the young general will probably not pretend that nothing happened.

It is said that although the Ning Mansion has fallen, it is not afraid of the revenge of a fifth-rank general, but it doesn't feel good to be remembered all the time.

And the reason why Jia Jing is helpless and bitter is because the backer behind this little general, the eldest son of the former deposed prince, and now King Yizhong, the Ning Mansion really can't afford to mess with him.

The current King Yizhong has a superlative status, because the Holy One was able to ascend the throne smoothly, and this unambitious but not lacking in scheming King Yizhong has a great contribution.

Moreover, King Yizhong is not very old, but he has a peaceful personality. He does not rush to take the lead in everything. Among the brothers and nephews of the Holy One, he is the most trusted and has the most nourishing life.

The Ningrong and Rongfu already had King Zhongshun as their deadly enemy, and with the addition of King Yizhong who might dislike them, life was really hard.

Facing Jia Jing who was frowning, Huo Mian smiled, "Would you like to gamble and admit defeat? If you join the Eastern Palace, the old man will also acquiesce."

Jia Jing was even more helpless: the suddenly enlightened grandson was obviously not optimistic about his decision with Brother Zhen. He wanted to show his previous assertiveness, but his intuition told him that the grandson in front of him was not easy to mess with...

Speaking of which, Jia's family members are more or less talented in Taoism. Jia Jing lived in Taoist temples all year round, and even read some Taoist classics seriously when he was bored.

Jia Jing is actually only one step away from getting started.Even though Jia Jing is still a layman, he is a little more miraculous than ordinary people.

For example, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that his grandson got a chance, and now he is probably a master of Taoism.Even if the grandson's words were very disdainful and disrespectful, the unhappiness in Jia Jing's heart was fleeting, and he was more pleased: with his grandson, it goes without saying if he wins the bet, and if he loses the bet, his grandson will take care of it. Confiscating the family and seizing the title means living an honest life behind closed doors, and after a few years cultivates a younger generation to fight in court again.

If Huo Mian knew Jia Jing's thoughts at this time, he would praise him: This is not too bad.Of course, he would not allow Jia Zhen to let herself go and run wildly on the road to death.

"Grandson thinks that our family doesn't have the capital of the past, so we need to spend more money to continue betting. It's almost done. If the situation is not good, we should quickly give up and stop... What does the old man think?"

Jia Jing was speechless for a while: Sun'er is begging him. Once Brother Zhen insists on going his own way again, Sun'er will disregard his father's face.

So what?Jia Jing is very disappointed in this son since Brother Zhen knows that Brother Rong's daughter-in-law's life experience is not simple and involves a lot.

If the son can't afford the family business, then the grandson will go!But how to take away the right to run the house from his son...

Huo Mian said to himself: "Let the master take a rest in a legitimate way, and the excuses are ready-made. Donggong..." He squinted his eyes, and his whole person seemed unfathomable, "the dragon spirit on his body is less than that of his other brothers."

Jia Jing was taken aback: Doesn't that mean that this time the bet is doomed...to lose everything? !

Huo Mian smiled, "Don't worry, old man, the sky is falling and there is a tall man to hold it up. As long as our family takes a different road to Hei, Wang Ziteng will die in front, so don't worry."

As soon as this remark came out, Jia Jing knocked the teacup on the ground in agitation.Hearing the movement, the little Taoist priest showed his head by the door. Jia Jing lost his composure for a moment, then calmed down after a while, and waved at the little Taoist priest who had been serving him for some years.

The little Taoist disappeared immediately.

Huo Mian turned a blind eye and continued: "The situation in the East Palace can be seen by all the experts in the palace, but no one will talk too much."

That is to say, the real people who have been walking in the palace all the year round can see that "the East Palace does not have such a life". Even if these real people can't tell the Holy One clearly, is there any reason why the Holy One is ignorant?

Jia Jing was so impatient that he naturally wanted to ask, "Where is the Holy One?"

Huo Mian didn't answer him directly, "Your Majesty is wise. And," he said in a low voice, "Your Majesty has a long life and is blessed. You don't need to ask me who the real dragon is."

These words are no longer implied, but express!

If Jia Jing didn't understand, he would be ashamed of his family background: the Holy One is destined to live a long life, so the next true dragon may not be born yet.

Taking a step back, if the Holy Majesty lived a long life, how could the Eastern Palace be willing to spend most of his life as the Eastern Palace?Will be desperate.As for the East Palace rebellion, how many successful ones have there been in history?

Huo Mian finished what he had to say, patted his butt and went back. Mr. Jia Jing was so preoccupied that he barely closed his eyes all night.However, Jia Jing's own son, Jia Zhen, was tossing and turning insomnia under the double torment both physically and psychologically.

Jia Jing is better, but Jia Zhen has done too many unreasonable things and is doomed not to end well. The worse his life is, the longer his life may be.

At the end of the year, the gardens were well repaired, and Lai Da Lai Sheng, the chief managers of Ningrong and Rongfu, and his brothers came together to make a summary in front of Uncle Zhen, and they were somewhat surprised to see Brother Rong sitting in the hands of Uncle Zhen.

The relationship between Uncle Zhen and Brother Rong's father and son became more and more strange. The Lai family brothers not only heard about it but also saw it several times: in short, the father is not the father, and the son is not the son.

Jia Zhen went to see Jia Jing once, and when she came back, she became more honest and honest. She didn't do anything bad. Huo Mian was naturally in a good mood. Seeing the brothers from the Lai family coming, after the two of them saluted respectfully, he said slowly, "You brothers, continue to build a family The villa, have you made more than ten thousand taels of silver?"

Jia Zhen can't fight against an enlightened son, but it's easy to deal with a disobedient chief executive.It's not uncommon to get money, and he made tens of thousands of taels in one go... Hell, he can bear it.He remembered that although the brothers of the Lai family were greedy for money, they were not so greedy...

Jia Zhen's face darkened.

The brothers of the Lai family knelt down one after another with two "plops".The two brothers looked pale and shouted "wronged" in repeated voices.

Huo Mian smiled, and explained to Jia Zhen, "Lai Xiangrong caused trouble and needs money to settle it. There is a reason for the two of them." He turned to Jia Zhen, "My master is a lesson. But there are many crimes, always You have to pay it back. Even if you pay the money, this matter will definitely not be settled."

Jia Zhen immediately asked, "How do you say that?"

"He dug a hole on purpose," Huo Mian pointed at Lai Dao, "I want him to inform our opponents, and he has already passed on all the doubts about my wife's life experience, as well as the master's thoughts."

Having said that, the Lai family brothers turned pale, and instead of shouting any wrongdoing, they just knelt down on the ground without saying a word.

What's the use of interrogation?Jia Zhen didn't say a word, but her face became more and more "pretty": he must not be able to forgive the two brothers who are sloppy.

Two or three sentences took care of Lai Da and Lai Sheng, whose heads had turned from reddish to crimson within half a month, and Huo Mian walked away contentedly.

Sure enough, as Huo Mian expected, the disposal of the Lai brothers was completely finished years ago.Even though Nanny Lai was very embarrassing in front of Mother Jia, the old lady knew what the brothers of the Lai family had done in recent years, so she drove the whole family out regardless of Nanny Lai's pleas.

Jia Zheng originally wanted to ask Jia Zhen for a favor, but the uncle and nephew had a "secret meeting" in the study for fifteen minutes, and the Lai brothers were sent off by Jia Zheng himself.

Jia Zhen and Jia She, the two masters with titles, each sent a letter to Jing Zhaoyin's desk, plus some gift money.

The brothers of the Lai family and Lai Xiangrong were quickly sentenced to exile without even staying in prison for half a month. Everyone expected that some accidents occurred during the exile.

As for the time when the Lai family cried bitterly and regretted their mistakes, the only hope was to contact the staff of the Zhongshun Palace...but the Zhongshun Palace never showed up.

Because Qin Keqing's identity has not passed the Ming road, but seeing Qin Feng doing well, one knows that the Holy One is definitely not ignorant of the Qin family's affairs, not to mention that there is a loyal king behind Qin Feng...so now It's definitely not a good time to talk about the Qin family.

It is said that the Zhongshun Prince’s Mansion made great efforts when the crown prince was abolished, but before the Holy Majesty’s ascension to the throne, it was a fool’s errand. Therefore, the current status of the Zhongshun Prince’s Mansion is indeed stronger than that of the Ningrong and Rongfu, but it is not that strong. I don't even need to mention my heart.

In short, they are more honest than the Ningrong and Rongfu in the court.Although they have always wanted to destroy the Jia family, their feud, but if others are involved in their revenge, they will definitely have to think it over again. The result of this deliberation is...wait and see what happens.

The disappearance of the Lai family from Ningrong and Rongfu did not cause any disturbance.The Lai family's words and deeds are mostly seen by the stewards in the mansion. When something happened at this time, the stewards in the mansion are excited to have the opportunity to go further.

In order to show more in front of the masters and wives, they worked more and more diligently.

So years ago, everything was in order in the garden built for Yuanchun family visit, just waiting for "a phoenix to come".Huo Mian watched the excitement from beginning to end, including going back to visit relatives in Yuanchun on the 15th day of the first lunar month.

Huo Mian glanced at Yuan Chun from a distance: it is very rare to have both merit and luck.It's just that they are destined not to live long, and whether they have children depends on chance.

He was standing by the lake thinking, when suddenly a middle-aged eunuch approached, "Sir, is Jia Rong, the son of Jia Zhen, the third-rank general of Ningguo Mansion?"

Listen to this name and surname, what if the good people don't come?

Huo Mian smiled slightly, "Your master was also very quiet during the Lantern Festival, did you go out for a stroll?"

The eunuch immediately froze, bent down a little, cupped his hands and said, "Master, please, please come with me, Master Rong."

This is the follow-up caused by "he smiled and passed by the national teacher in the palace".Huo Mian doesn't mind walking around and seeing more people, in case he meets his wife...or her father and brother in this world.

So Huo Mian followed the eunuch out from the back door of the Rong Mansion, got into the carriage, and stopped in front of a teahouse after a short drive—today is the Lantern Festival, even late at night there are many tourists.

Huo Mian didn't need to go upstairs, Huo Mian knew that today he was sitting in the private room by the window on the third floor... looking at him.Huo Mian raised his head and smiled.

The four eyes met, and the sage was not angry, but turned his head and said to the national teacher beside him, "It is indeed unusual."

The national teacher Nian Xu smiled and said: "The waves behind the Yangtze River drive the waves ahead... This little brother is not inferior to me."

Huo Mian went upstairs and got up after the ceremony. The Holy One first smiled and said, "Look at the seat", and then asked, "How do you know it's me, little brother?"

The Son of Heaven is not the only one who can afford eunuchs.However, the Holy One knew that it was somewhat miraculous to have a cultivation level in his body, so he...wasn't that curious, it was just a topic for chatting.

In order to impress His Majesty, Huo Mian said bluntly, "Your Majesty, please stretch out your hand with the palm facing up."

Although it was a bit presumptuous, the Holy Majesty didn't care.He stretched out his hand as he said, and Huo Mian's fingertips touched his palm.Immediately, the Holy Majesty noticed that his field of vision... had completely changed: everyone was covered with a layer of gray mist, but some of the mist glowed, and some of the mist was mixed with black lines...

Huo Mian didn't take back his finger, but just ordered, "Please ask your majesty to take a look through the mirror."

The Holy Majesty became more curious and gave his confidant a wink.

After a while, the confidant came forward holding the mercury mirror, the Holy Majesty looked at it from the mirror, was stunned for a moment and then burst into laughter, "So that's how it is!"

It turned out that in the mirror his body was surrounded by brilliant golden light, and above his head a golden dragon was flying up and down and circling up and down.

Huo Mian also said with a smile: "The grass people are lucky to have opened their eyes...the world does not know anyone, and it is impossible not to recognize His Majesty."

The emperor's old man's flattery still needs to be slapped, and maybe one day in the future, he will need a swipe of the imperial pen to propose marriage to him and his wife.Besides, this emperor is a real wise and virtuous ruler, tolerant and long-lived, treat him better, Huo Mian is not guilty.
