Chapter 501
The prince lingered happily in Rongguo Mansion for two hours before returning to the palace with the guards sent by the saint.
The sage looked at the unconcealable smile on the prince's face, and asked with a smile, "Is the wine in Rongguo Mansion really that good?"
"Father, the wine in the Rongguo Mansion was given to Duke Rong by you. The food is not as exquisite as in the palace. But the few people who went today, I think it is very interesting."
The prince narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of those young people present here today.
Since the crown prince laid off half of the subjects in the East Palace, this was the first time he had discussed such a topic with the saint.
"Oh? Who went there?" The saint was aroused by the prince.
"Jia Jing." The crown prince first reported to Jia Jing who still belonged to the Eastern Palace.
The saint nodded, "Jia Jing. What does Ming Yun think of him?"
The crown prince shook his head, "It's not as good as Zhang Zan. Zhang Zan is too honest, but he is still loyal to the big scene. He is too selfish."
The sage approved the words of the prince.
"Are you still willing to keep him?"
The crown prince shook his head, "Father, it would be best to arrange for Jia Jing to be another one. The son-in-law was just looking at Duke Rong and Marquis En."
The sage thought about Ningguo Mansion's full repayment of the debt, and thought to himself, "Although Jia Jing is a second-ranked Jinshi, he is not a talented person. Let him go to Honglu Temple to be a young minister. It's all right." Just receive a salary in idle time, and the imperial court will send someone else if something happens. Thinking about it, it can be regarded as giving him the best of his talents."
"Father Huang Shengming. Such a suitable position for Jia Jing to go, and Rong Guogong and his son are also good-looking."
The sage had long wanted to transfer Jia Jing away from the East Palace, but now he just followed the trend.
"Who else has gone?" The sage then asked the prince.
"Zhang Zan." There was obvious regret on the prince's face. "Father is the number one scholar, alas, what a pity."
"What's the pity, the number one scholar comes every three years. Ming Yun, do you think the cabinet minister is the number one scholar? How many of the ministers are born as the number one scholar? A good article may not be able to be a man. To be a minister or minister, you must first know how to do it." Be a person, and then do things.”
The prince was silent for a while, and then continued: "Father, I think he can lead the Yushitai alone, or shine in the Ministry of Punishment." The prince shook his head, "Father, I think he is better than ten years ago." Even more straight."
The saint had high hopes for Zhang Zanyuan, but this man...
"He still goes to the Hanlin Academy, maybe he is suitable there."
The prince understood the subtext of the sage, if Zhang Zan was not good enough in the Hanlin Academy, he would have to tolerate him until he couldn't stand it anymore and resigned on his own.
"Father, Enhou's second uncle, Zhang Yu, is pretty good. He's flexible, and he's a good man now. My son asked him about his ambitions. He wants to take charge of the local government after the good men leave the house." .”
"Good ambition. Don't go to the province, don't go to the province. I hope he is capable."
The sage guessed that Jia Daishan's move was for himself and the crown prince to recommend someone, this old Jia always had his mind wandering around.
"Father, the other two are also very good. One is the brother-in-law of Enhou, the son of Wendinghou, and Tanhua Linhai of Shangke. The other is Jia Laoer's brother-in-law Wang Ziteng. There will be promising prospects in middle school. Well, there are also those cousins of Enhou, whom I have met before, and they are also very good."
"Duke Rong's junior in-laws are pretty good." The saint praised casually. "Then Jia Er, what do you think of this?"
The prince frowned, "It's not as good as Jia Jing."
The sage smiled, it was similar to what he had learned.He thought to himself that if the Wang family were to take over the military power of the Rongguo Mansion, the rebound would be small.
The father and son of the saints in the palace talk about the young people at the party.Several young people who came to Rongguo Mansion also thanked Jia's father and son for their support in their hearts.
Wang Ziteng clasped his fists at Jia She: "Brother Shi loves to support and support, but brother Yu is unforgettable."
Jia She smiled, "They are all close relatives of my family, why do I say these words. I hope you will travel thousands of miles in the future and go straight to the sky."
They were all young people. After talking and laughing to their heart's content, they left happily.
Wang Ziteng is very happy today.Originally, in order to marry with the Rongguo Mansion, the parents had negotiated the marriage with the Rongguo Mansion early on.But it happened that after Jia Amnesty was chosen by the Taifu, he had to give his eldest sister to Jia Zheng, the second son who had no rank and no talent.Just let him hold back all the energy in his heart, even for the sake of the two younger sisters.He went to see his sister this morning, but saw that she had a peaceful expression and a satisfied smile all over her face. He thought it was Jia Laoer who had grown up.Ask Jia Zheng carefully about his homework, and he can only grow up to a limited extent.
In the end, it was Jia Zheng who couldn't hold back, and revealed a little bit of the preference Jia Mu gave to their husband and wife, with his bones in his mouth, that is, the Shenxianju in Beijing was his property.
Wang Ziteng knew that the business of Shenxianju had been very good. In the past few months, because the restaurant began to supply the only pure wine in Beijing, the business has improved to a higher level.Jia Zheng was favored by Jia's mother, and looking at his younger sister's life, Wang Ziteng's heart was relieved a lot.Now that Jia She has introduced him to the prince, it seems that the prince has a good impression of him.Finally reaped the benefits of marrying Rongguo Mansion.
Heaven pays off the Wang family.
The Zhang family brothers were also very happy after seeing their younger sister, who now looks like an unmarried girl.Remembering what his wife said to him, Zhang Zan couldn't help sullenly, and instilled in his sister a lot of principles about honoring his parents-in-law.It wasn't until the tears that Mrs. Zhang said were streaming down, that she stopped embarrassingly.
Zhang Yu comforted his sister a few words, and then said to Jia She: "Enhou, Zhen'er has been pampered at home, and I still rely on you to teach her. If there is something she hasn't done well, it's better if you say it than others say about her."
Jia Amnesty agreed again and again, and only said that Mrs. Zhang did everything well to save his wife's face.
After Jia Amnesty saw his second son, Jia Amnesty carried Jia Lian to the nanny by himself, leaving space for the Zhang family brothers and sisters to talk.
Zhang Yu then said: "Zhen'er, my elder brother and I saw that Brother Hu is with Mrs. Rong Guo, and he is very close to Mrs. Rong Guo. How is Brother Hu with you? Can Mrs. Rong Guo help you?"
Mrs. Zhang shook her head, "Don't worry brother, brother Hu is still the same, and my wife has never made things difficult for me."
Zhang Zan asked Nanny Luo a few more words, and learned that his younger sister would go to her mother-in-law's place sooner or later to greet her, listen to her mother-in-law, and have a good relationship with her brother-in-law, so the two brothers were relieved.
Alas, the parents returned to their hometown, and the two brothers realized the warmth and warmth of human relationships, the difficulties of the world, and the heavy burden on their shoulders.
Back at the Zhang family, Zhang Zan said regretfully to Zhang Yu, "It's all my elder brother's fault. The servant of the Ministry of Punishment that my father planned for me has come before me, and I have to let go."
But Zhang Yu shrugged and didn't care much, "Brother, you only see what we have lost, but not what our family has gained. Which descendant of the chief assistant can continue to hold the important power in the court? As long as one of us can When you reach the third grade, you are stronger than those descendants of Shangshu."
Zhang Zan thought it was true, "Oh, no wonder my father wants to get married."
"That's right. Those nobles followed the Tai/ancestors to conquer the great world, so only the nobles survived with the great scene. We civil servants just came and left. As long as Xu'er's generation, still If we can gain a foothold in the imperial court, or go one step further than elder brother, even if our generation is worthy of our father, the Zhang family can be regarded as a family of officials and eunuchs."
Let Zhang Yu speak from his heart, the eldest brother should have stayed in the Imperial Academy from the very beginning, there is no other problem, it is because of his personality.No matter how good you usually say, if you change it and change it, if something happens, you still can't force it.
A few days later, Zhang Zan was transferred to the Imperial Academy and became the deputy of Zhang Yushu, the head of the Imperial Academy.Jia Daishan didn't expect this. He thought that Hao Shangshu, the Ministry of Officials, would arrange Zhang Zan as an ordinary Hanlin scholar.
In fact, it is because the sage is willing to take office in time because of the Taifu, and he has taken care of the descendants of the Zhang family.
Hao Shangshu still doesn't want to take Jia Daishan's favor in vain.
"Mr. Rong, you don't have to thank me, it's the meaning of a saint."
At the same time as Zhang Zan was transferred, Jia Jing was transferred to Honglu Temple as Shaoqing.
Jia Daishan heaved a sigh of relief. He felt the same regret for Zhang Zan for this nephew.But with his second son in comparison, that is even more helpless.
As the weather turns cold, we have entered the coldest year of the year.Rongguo Mansion fell into a strange atmosphere.Grandma took over the butler, but the place where the butler reported his affairs was still in the back flower hall of the main courtyard of Rongxi Hall.
What Jia Mu said to Jia She, "Your daughter-in-law is a person who is slack and walks around. It is only good for her to come and walk twice a day."
As for Jia Hu, who was by Jia's mother's side, he could see his mother after practicing martial arts in the morning, and he didn't have to go to the east courtyard specially, so the time was a little more relaxed.
Nanny Luo persuaded Zhang in private, "Grandma, it's good to go to the main courtyard to be a councilor, the wife frightens the daughters-in-law, if there is anything, it's easy to send a maid to ask under the nose of the wife. Besides, you and Shi Ziye are going to move to Rongxi Hall in the future."
Mrs. Zhang knew that no matter what others said, her mother-in-law's place for discussion would not change, and she could only listen.She is also smart, seeing that her mother-in-law cares more about Jia Lian than the other children, she asks the nurse to carry the child to the main room every day, and then take him back after saying hello at night.
Nanny Luo highly praised Zhang's actions.
"Grandma, even if the young master is left in the east courtyard, you won't be able to see him all morning. If you come over early after taking a break, you can also see the young master."
If you want Nanny Luo to tell you, Mrs. Zhang should put the child with her mother-in-law.It's a pity that Zhang Shi can't figure it out, and she doesn't want to make Zhang Shi sad.
Just look at Brother Hu who was brought up by Mrs. Zhang, and now he is on good terms with his wife, how much worse than the one brought up by his wife.
As for Jia Lian, who is just a few months old, his teeth are beginning to grow. He likes to come to his grandmother's main room the most. What he likes most every day is that his grandmother feeds him with water. I don't hug others.
Seeing how close the eldest son and second son were to their mother, Jia She could only sigh that he and his wife left Jia Hu by their side for nothing.
Mrs. Zhang thought: "Husband, if we didn't keep Hu'er by our side, would Hu'er be like a stranger to us?"
Jia Amnesty admitted that what his wife said was reasonable, the relationship between the eldest son and his husband and wife was better than that between himself and his parents.
In the twelfth lunar month, Mrs. Zhang has to close accounts with the store and Zhuangzi. Jia Amnesty is afraid that she will be slippery in management and Mrs. Zhang will make mistakes, so she tries her best to spend time with her.When Jia Daishan came back early several times, he saw Jia Amnesty helping his wife, so he couldn't help complaining to his wife.
"Enhou, why don't you manage the prince's affairs in the East Palace properly, why are you distracted by these things in the mansion?"
Mother Jia glanced at him, and said coldly, "Grandpa, let me say that Mrs. Zhang is the lucky one."
Jia Daishan wanted to argue with his wife about what a man should do, but saw his wife get up and leave.Just leave Jia Daishan there, and ignore him all night.
