[Comprehensive] Master of Merit

Lin Hai's term of office is about to expire, and Huo Mian estimates that this lord will not leave within a few years after he comes to the capital.

As for Qin Keqing's cousin, Qin Feng, he really returned to Beijing to report on his duties. After seeing the Holy Majesty, he probably would have to return to the Northwest to continue leading the army within a few days.

Huo Mian flipped through the background of the mission, and suddenly realized: this one also wants to stay in Beijing.

The current Yizhong King is definitely willing to meet the requirements of his confidant and beloved general, and is going to choose one of the two Shijia brothers to lead the army in the northwest.Qin Feng would stay in the capital, and it would be best if he could find a position in the imperial army, and he would be able to be plated with gold after a few years.

After reading the updated mission description, Huo Mian knows that Qin Feng's future is limitless: he needs to be capable and capable, and he needs to have a backer and a backer. Moreover, the Holy Majesty believes that the Qin family has been wronged, and there must be compensation in the future.It is not unwise to describe Jia Zhen's feud with this young talent because of Qin Keqing.

But no matter how violent the storm is, it is destined not to blow Huo Mian, so he still slept well that night.

Jia's mother in Rongguo Mansion, Jia She and Jia Zheng's brothers, Mrs. Wang, and Jia Lian and his wife...all had their own worries and couldn't sleep all night.The lights in Jia Zhen's study simply stayed on all night.

In the morning, Huo Mian slept until he woke up naturally. After getting up, he habitually scanned the status of the characters: almost all of them were sluggish... Just like that sentence, I feel relieved knowing that you are not doing well. This time Huo Mian ate an extra bowl of porridge earlier.

Wanting to bring Ningrong and Rongfu to the right path, the effect of "letting them know how to be in awe before they stumble" is better than "destroying them in one fell swoop", because the process of suffering can make this family even more impressive.

If they all "heal their scars and forget about the pain", Huo Mian will make them suffer even more.Anyway, let Baoyu take responsibility, escape the ending of confiscating the family and seizing the title, and keep the hope of the Ningrong and Rongfu rising again, even if they are worthy of the two dukes.

After making up his mind, Huo Mian changed his clothes and went straight to the main room: to "visit" Jia Zhen.

Affected by internal and external troubles, there were too many bad things to count, and Jia Zhen took some strong medicine for her useless body. As a result, many aphthous sores developed in her mouth... She was useless below the waist or not.

In anger, he wanted to use props to vent the evil fire at night, and everyone found them all.But for some reason, Jia Zhen suddenly had Brother Rong's face in her mind, and she sneered even if her face was frosty... It was like pouring a basin of ice water on her head, and Jia Zhen immediately felt chilled.

It is human nature to bully the weak and fear the hard.Seeing Brother Rong again today, Jia Zhen became more and more unconfident.

Anyway, there is no outsider in the house, Huo Mian did not hide it, "If you do a lot of crimes, there will always be retribution. Please keep this in mind, and there is no explanation for Qin's affairs. Naturally, the master can't get repaid." wish'."

Jia Zhen frowned, "It really is you." Even so, he couldn't get annoyed at all.If you can't say it, you can't beat it. If you get anxious, who knows what tricks he will use?

Jia Zhen's resignation to her fate... is much more pleasing to the eye.

Huo Mian smiled, "Our family's luck is not as good as before, and we don't have enough merits to keep the house. Otherwise, the master will die because he has evil intentions and no courage. Not only will my daughter-in-law not die, but her brother Qin Feng will also become our family's arm .”

Jia Zhen didn't speak for a long time. He finished a cup of tea slowly, feeling less thirsty, and said, "It's time for us to share with Rongfu."

Rong Guo Gong Jia Daishan spent most of his life in the northwest training troops and farming to defend against foreign enemies, so most of the remaining old friends and contacts in the Rong Guo Mansion were also in the northwest.Jia Daishan's close friends and former subordinates are all in their twilight years. Although they are high-ranking, they are not very adventurous.

And Jia Daihua, the previous "head" of the Ningguo Mansion, had been the military governor of the Beijing camp for many years, and most of his contacts were in the imperial army and the crown prince's guard.

Compared with Rongguo Mansion, the Eastern Palace now values ​​Ning Mansion's support more.Otherwise, why would Wang Ziteng insist on Jia Zheng pulling Jia Zhen on board the East Palace boat together.

Jia Zhen continued: "Recently, I helped the prince to join someone." It was said that he helped the prince to join someone, but in fact, the Ningfu provided a lot of reasons and evidence, "It's too late to reject the prince's 'good intentions' now."

Huo Mian was happy again, "Speaking of this, the master has no idea? Can't afford to provoke or hide? The world is so big, where can't we go?"

Jia Zhen nodded and said, "That's exactly what I mean. Just go to the Northwest." This saves the neighbors from thinking too much, and besides, the Northwest was once the territory of the Zhongshun Palace, and there was a Qilin from the Qin family in the Northwest as a general.

Huo Mian correctly guessed Jia Zhen's thoughts, "The little general of the Qin family is going to stay in Beijing."

Jia Zhen was surprised and said, "How did you find out?" As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he realized that he had asked a stupid question, so he didn't ask again, "I must either ban the army, or go southwest."

"Don't think about the Imperial Army," Huo Mian said, "Your Majesty doesn't look down on us. The Southwest has never been safe. If the master is willing to go there and endure hardships, the Majesty will be happy to see it happen."

As long as he doesn't have sex with men, women, women, he and Jia Zhen can easily chat together, after all, Jia Zhen has an above-average IQ most of the time. "The second master of the Rong Mansion has remained motionless for so many years. If he is willing to become an official in those poor state capitals, as long as he submits a letter to the sage, he will definitely approve it... It's a pity that his heart is higher than the sky and his life is thinner than paper."

Jia Zhen quite agreed, and he didn't think much of Jia Zheng in his heart, "I will discuss it with the old man later. If he is willing, I will ask for orders to go to the southwest. There is the old man and you in Beijing, so I am not afraid of any troubles." .”

Huo Mian reminded: "Master, remember to be a good official when you go to the Southwest. It's nothing more than a breeze in your sleeves, and the master is not such a person, as long as you let the poor people live. If you can keep the people in peace, the merits will come to you. "

When Jia Zhen heard this, she also became interested, "Can you also gain merit by doing good deeds?"

Huo Mian rolled his eyes, "Even if the master does good deeds in order to get good rewards, isn't it a good thing for you to do good deeds?"

This sentence was a bit of a mouthful, but it was like enlightenment, and Jia Zhen immediately understood what she should do.

The two reached an agreement, and Huo Mian suddenly remembered that no matter what he got married, he had to say hello to his cheap father, "I have my eyes on the girl from the Li family."

"The Li family?" Jia Zhen thought about it deeply, "Your sister who is serving a bachelor?"

At this time, the Bachelor of Attendance is equivalent to the emperor's secretary, and can only be served by Hanlin. The grade is not high, but no one will underestimate it.As the emperor's close ministers, even the prince should be more polite to them and pay more attention to them.

Jia Zhen said comfortingly, "I have a good vision."

"Just to tell you in advance. If it works, I will find a way to ask the Holy One to marry me; if it doesn't work, I won't marry in this life."

Jia Zhen was speechless again for a long time, thinking that I'm really in love these days: I can't control my future and official career, and I can't even talk too much about marriage!Now Brother Rong looks more and more like his great-grandfather... Forget it, let me continue to understand current affairs.

Coming out of Jia Zhen's study, Huo Mian bumped into Youshi without taking a few steps: Jia Zhen was going to leave Beijing to become an official, Youshi must have got some word of mouth.He felt sympathy for this cowardly fill in the house: it turned out that Youshi's ability and means were not inferior to Wang Xifeng's.

Huo Mian went back to the house to practice for a while, and went out to play chess with Jia Jing in the afternoon to pass the time.

At this time, the atmosphere in Rongguo Mansion was really weird.

Jia Daishan's appearance yesterday, coupled with Brother Rong's repeated fights last night, finally made Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng brothers feel a little bit of rebellion—resistance~resistance~Wang Ziteng's thoughts.

In a few days, I will go to the palace to meet the imperial concubine, Madam Wang is still introspecting in her room, this time she will have to work for Jia Mu.

The mother and son discussed for the whole afternoon, and finally decided to stay away from the prince for a while. When they entered the palace, they just asked the imperial concubine whether the empress also had the intention to lean towards the East Palace.

Ass for the East Palace!

A few days later, after listening to his grandmother's report, Yuan Chun became very angry: Is she, a young and childless concubine, worthy of sticking to the prince's side?

Because Yuan Chun is more favored and has always been close to his grandmother, he saved his words, "Master Wang," he didn't even call his uncle in a hurry, "I don't care what it is." She took a deep breath, "I only heard it once. It is said that the crown prince's side concubine is Lord Wang's inner niece. Lord Wang contributed a lot when I became a concubine, and my wife probably heard this from Lord Wang's inner house."

As a first-rank official, Wang Ziteng earns a lot of filial piety, but also spends a lot.

Rongguo Mansion is the family that sends filial piety to Prince Teng: the money is sent to Wang's family every time through the hands of Mrs. Wang.But filial piety is accepted, how much did Wang Ziteng help the Rong Mansion?After thinking about it, it seems that Wang Ziteng promoted Jia Yucun.

However, Jia Yucun was still holding Lin Hai's recommendation letter when he sought recovery.

Being in the palace, Yuan Chun actually knew more about the previous dynasty than her uncle and father.There is no other reason, because she can get some news from Shang Shang.

But what she knew, and what she wanted her family to know... was cut off at Mrs. Wang's place.

Because Mrs. Wang is sure: she will not only count on her children in the future, but also count on her mother's family!How could she just sit back and watch the "inexplicable" birth of the daughter who is a noble concubine and the elder brother who is a first-rank official?

So this clumsy but "extremely scheming" second wife came out from the imperial concubine, and when she returned to the house, she was always picky and picky.

This time when Jia Mu entered the palace, after several checks with her granddaughter, the grandfather and grandson finally knew what Mrs. Wang had done.

It has to be said that because Mrs. Wang is eccentric but has limited knowledge, what she thinks can be hidden is often extremely important.

The visiting hours were limited, and Mother Jia didn't have time to brew up her emotions, so she told Yuan Chun all about what Brother Rong said and did in the past few days.

Having seen the national teacher Xuanmiao with her own eyes, Yuan Chun was taken aback before grandma finished speaking. She covered her heart and said, "Is there really a high-ranking person in our family?" Immediately afterwards she told Jia Mu, "On the day of visiting relatives, Brother Rong came out of the house, Jun, and the Holy Majesty didn't hide it from me. Looking at Brother Rong now, I'm afraid there will be a fortune."

She originally thought that it would be her younger brother Baoyu who would finally gain the emperor's reliance with supernatural powers.

Yuan Chun thought for a while and told his grandmother in a low voice, "Since that's the case, it's better to ask Brother Rong about everything. Grandpa... can't do anything, we should be cautious."

The meaning is very clear: listen to Brother Rong more, if your grandfather is around, then listen to your grandfather.

This is the difference in knowledge and vision: Mrs. Wang can get rid of Jia Rong without hesitation for Baoyu, if she has such a chance; will give great support.

Jia Mu came into the palace with a lot of thoughts, and went out of the palace with a lot of thoughts.

After grandma left, Yuan Chun lay on the couch, annoyed and worried, his brows furrowed all the time.

Holding the qin and serving tea, Yuan Chun looked at this loyal girl for a while, and then said, "When you see your parents, remember to ask them to recommend some people." She couldn't know what happened to her natal family without her mother.

Holding the piano and rubbing Yuan Chun's temples, "Your Majesty, don't worry."

In other words, Jia Zhen, who has made up her mind, acted vigorously and resolutely. After consulting his father Jia Jing, he wrote a letter asking himself to train troops in the Southwest.

The Holy Majesty met, approved a quasi-play, and went to the Yuanchun Palace that night to praise Jia Zhen for her "grandfather's style": If all the nobles have such ambitions, why should he worry about the injustice at the border?

When Yuan Chun heard these words, he felt mixed feelings: he was happy because his cousin acted very wisely, but worried because his uncle and father could only continue to muddle along like this without embarrassment or embarrassment.Because uncle and father had always counted on Wang Ziteng to give him a fat job, otherwise uncle would not have been a candidate, and father would not have stayed in the Ministry of Industry all the time.

Now they seem to have come to their senses, no longer relying on Wang Ziteng, and want to draw a line with Wang Ziteng... But you should make a move!

Jia Zhen in Ningguo Mansion had no way of knowing Yuanchun's mood.But he said that he got the approval from the Holy Majesty and got the documents from the Ministry of War within a few days.With the documents in hand, Jia Zhen packed up and set off for the post. His wife and concubine sent them to the suburbs of Beijing reluctantly with tears in their eyes, but he left without looking back.

It took less than ten days to add up from the letter to the departure.How Rongguo Mansion treats Mrs. Wang has not been discussed yet.

Jia Zhen had been away for several days before Qin Feng was busy with his business: when he returned to Beijing, he had to meet the emperor first, then report to the Ministry of War, and met all the adults who had to be interviewed... Finally, he had no time to avenge his personal revenge.

Qin Feng couldn't get rid of Jia Zhen, the real master, so Huo Mian blocked Huo Mian on the only way to play chess with Jia Jing.

Qin Feng is imposing, heroic, and looks pretty good.

Huo Mian didn't know that this was Qin Keqing's cousin, because the siblings really didn't look alike at all—until he pushed the invisible glasses on the bridge of his nose.

Qin Feng actually has the appearance of being a Marquis... Not only will he have great military exploits in the future, but he is also quite upright.Huo Mian's attitude has naturally improved a lot, at least he won't sneer.He cupped his hands, "General Qin has long admired him."

At this time, there were no pedestrians around, Qin Feng flicked his horsewhip, "You are the one waiting."

Seeing a group of soldiers surrounding him tightly, Huo Mian was as steady as Mount Tai, "He is a happy man, I really saw him right." After saying that, he got off his horse calmly.

After a stick of incense, except for a few horses that seemed to be petrified, he couldn't stand and pant anymore.

Qin Feng was in pain everywhere except his face, and he couldn't stand up, so he could only lie on the ground and asked sharply, "You are so powerful, why do you sit and watch her... Qin's death?"

Huo Mian told the truth, "Because I came late. You are also very good. If you contact your cousin earlier, nothing will happen." He got on the horse slowly and took a few punches and kicks, but nothing serious , now the long follower and the young man who dared not speak at all called up, and then turned to Qin Feng and said, "How can you hide your life experience from the Holy Majesty? In short, there is a wronged person and a debtor, and we are always waiting for you."

Qin Feng is also a well-informed person, so he immediately asked, "Are you a monk?! Or a cultivator... an expert?"

When Huo Mianneng was honest, he was quite honest, "I am indeed practicing Taoism." After speaking, he led people away.

Qin Feng and his soldiers could only watch Huo Mian and the others drift away.After finally regaining his strength, Qin Feng and his soldiers returned to the post house in a rather embarrassed state.

The next day I met King Yizhong, and it happened that King Beijing was also there. Qin Feng did not hide it at all, and told the two princes exactly what happened yesterday, without adding any details at the end, "This one is not easy to subdue .”

Qin Feng wants to deal with Huo Mian, half of it is out of sincerity, and the other half is naturally... the prince's request.

In response to Huo Mian's saying, "There is an injustice and a debtor." Qin Feng doesn't hate Jia Rong very much. What he really wants to get rid of is the few officials who reported on his family back then.With these grown-ups "precious and jade in front", Jia Zhen has to lean back.

King Yizhong and King Beijing looked at each other, and King Beijing spoke first, "I didn't expect this one to suddenly stand out like this."

King Yizhong said: "I thought that the one who was born with the title of jade should be the one who is blessed by nature among the Ningrong and Rongfu."

King Bei Jing shook his head, "I am also very surprised. A few days ago, I found an expert to take a look at the second young master of the Rong Mansion, and sure enough, his fate has changed, but his fate is still normal, not a big fortune. generation."

King Yizhong asked, "Can someone take a look at the eldest grandson of the Ning Mansion?"

King Bei Jing smiled without saying a word, and said after taking a sip of tea, "It's a golden light, I can't see anything clearly."

The two princes looked at each other again and smiled tacitly.Qin Feng was thoughtful.

A few days later, Yuanchun issued a decree to let his family, especially Baoyu and a group of sisters, live in the Grand View Garden. However, before everyone excitedly discussed where to live, Lin Hai went to Beijing, and he came after meeting the king. Rongfu took Daiyu home.

When Huo Mian heard about it, he was delighted to hear it: I am afraid that the official appointment will be demolished?

The author has something to say: Why do I love to type Lin Hai instead of Lin Ruhai, because I can type one less word.
