Chapter six hundred and seventy-fifth of the sixteenth year of Yongzhi's relatives

Jia Huan came out of Wuyou Hall, crossed the North Street of Rongguo Mansion to the south, and entered the Rongguo Mansion. He walked straight outside Wangyueju, crossed the courtyard in the east, and Rongxi Hall.

Walking on the spacious corridor of Jia Mansion Middle Road, this is the area in the middle of Jia Mansion. The air seems to be filled with the smell of festive firecrackers.

The flowers are similar every year, but people are different every year. During the Spring Festival, in the Jia Mansion, it is a day by day in the fun and celebration.

Jia Huan smiled with emotion.

Two months have passed since the Wuying Palace held an appointment at the end of October. He bid farewell to one colleague, friend, and teacher in the capital, and was completely idle at home. The spring of the 16th year of Yongzhi is coming.

In fact, if the official career is in charge of the Zheng Daddy as the Zheng Zheng envoy, the situation in the Jia family is stable. Jia Huan is not anxious. Yes, wait for the later period of the Yongzhi Dynasty to gradually end.

Of course, he offended the King of Chu a bit deeply, so it would be best if he could help King Jin set the position of the prince as soon as possible. Let the powerful Emperor Yongzhi train his own son well and sharpen the King of Jin's temper and temperament. In this way, after the new emperor ascended the throne, the Jia family would have a better life and would not be liquidated inexplicably.

In the current situation, the fierce chess game in the battle for the throne has just begun to play. What he needs to do is to watch and wait for the opportunity.

Before these things, what he needed to consider was to refresh the favorable feelings of Emperor Yongzhi and let him marry Lin Daimei. How could he make his beautiful family compassionate himself in the secluded boudoir? He needed to pay attention to the reform of silver coins.

Also, Na Yuner and Vivi’s affairs will be solved one by one after the New Year.

Before the New Year, he wrote a letter to go to Jiangnan, asking Weiwei to consider coming to Beijing with Shanzhang. Shanzhang became the left censor and returned to the north of Jinling after the New Year. Of course, if Weiwei did not come, he would go to Jiangnan in person to pick her up to Beijing.





Jia Huan thought in his mind, pondering his short-term, medium-term and long-term plans, passing Xiangnan Hall, Yimen, and to the front yard area of ​​Jia Mansion, Jia Zheng's outer study room.

In the small courtyard of the study room, a row of servants were waiting. When they saw Jia Huan coming, they were in groups of three or three. The servants who laughed and talked in a low voice hurriedly saluted, "You guys have seen the third master."

Jia Huan glanced over and said, Jia Zheng's eldest son Suishi; Jia Lian's servants Xing'er, Long'er, and Zhao'er were all there. Jia Huan nodded with a smile and entered Zheng's father's study.

Mr. Zheng’s father’s eldest son, Li Shier, deceived his superiors and subordinates. When he was in Fujian, he was eliminated by Master Bai. Now, Mr. Zheng’s eldest son has changed to a loyal and honest young man.

In the outer study, sandalwood was burning in the incense burner. Jia Zheng was drinking tea, sitting behind the exquisite ebony desk, talking to Jia Lian. Several Qing Guests were accompanying him.

Jia Huan came in and everyone exchanged a few greetings. The guests said goodbye and left the study room for Jia Zheng and others to speak.

Jia Zheng took a sip of tea and asked, "Brother Huan, I'm asking you here to ask how you prepared for the visit to the concubine of Yuan?"

Dad Zheng has always been a hand-off manager, but Yuanchun has visited the couple once. On that day, the whole house was busy, so where is it so leisurely now? It is already the eleventh day of the first lunar month. The palace has approved: Visiting relatives on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

Jia Huan stood in the hall and said calmly: "Father, although the mansion has recovered some vitality now, there are some shops, and there are currently a few thousand taels of silver in the tent of the public center. However, with the current political situation, it is really not easy to be extravagant."

Jia Lian was speechless.

Look at how beautiful Brother Huan said. In fact, it is to save as much as possible. In the first month of the 13th year of Yongzhi, visiting relatives, apart from the cost of the Grand View Garden, the mansion lost nearly 5,000 taels of silver in one night. Now Brother Huan is in charge of the family, with his "simple" style, how can he be willing to buy fame and face on this?

Jia Zheng pondered slightly, sighed, and said, "I'm afraid I'll be wronged by your elder sister!"

In the current political situation, Concubine Jia fell out of favor in the palace. If it was a big news for the visit to the family, it would not be great. But if it was deserted, wouldn’t it be disappointing to concubine Jia again? Is the Jia family unwilling to come back?

Jia Huan bowed and advised: "Father, the key to welcoming the eldest sister in the mansion is to be in family affection, not in pomp. If outsiders laugh at my family because of the deserted and unrestrained Jia's mansion, what's there to care about? The situation is like drinking water, and you will know the warmth and coldness."

Jia Zheng thought about it, nodded, and said, "You can arrange it."

Jia Huan received the order and said, "Father, newspapers of all sizes and big in Beijing are gradually emerging. My son plans to start a newspaper in the name of the mansion. Say to his father in advance."

The Great Sunday News of the King of Chu, the dynasty struggle has ended, and now it has been lifted. It is reported that the daily sales have reached 15,000 copies after receiving capital injection from Shanxi merchants. It can be called a big newspaper.

The public opinion position is there. If you don’t occupy it, the enemy will occupy it.

Grandmaster Fang is about to complete his divorce. Wei Hanlin is the executive vice president and will inevitably be promoted. Grand Secretary Hua Mo is in power and will inevitably be replaced by the editor-in-chief of the Truth. Jia Huan had to prepare for the future and run a newspaper.

Of course, it is impossible for the newspapers run by the Tongzheng envoy to use the power of review to seal them. Jia Huan has an innate advantage in this regard.

Of course, he is not alone. Hu Chi, the king of money in the southwest, agreed to "sponsor". Of course, the exchange was that the newspapers would praise the political achievements of the Governor of the Southwest Qi.

"Yes." Jia Zheng was still very relieved about Jia Huan's work. He didn't ask too much and agreed directly.





After leaving the courtyard of the study room outside, walking on the bluestone road in the Jia Mansion, the afternoon sun is warm. The noise in the Jia Mansion is heard in the wind from a distance. It seems a little close, and it seems a little far away.

Jia Lian explained: "Brother Huan, I have to say it when I see you." Jia Lian is responsible for the visit to the family. Before Jia Zheng met Jia Huan, he had asked Jia Lian for details.

Jia Huan waved his hand and said indifferently: "It's just that you are good at face. What's the use of the situation? This time, the Yuan Concubine visited her relatives, and the eunuchs and palace maids accompanying her must be handled in place. The second brother Lian is responsible for the matter. Let Brother Rong and Brother Qiang help with the work."

Jia Lian nodded in agreement, and at the same time, he felt relieved. He said: "Brother Huan, I will ask someone to send it to your house last year's financial statements, account books, and this year's plans?"

When Jia Huan heard this, he had a headache and said, "Okay."

Since Jia Huan came to power, the power structure of the Jia family has changed greatly. Or, with several major managers in the management office, they are in charge of various affairs of the Jia family. They set up salary levels and position levels, and are linked to corresponding salary, benefits, and benefits, such as modern company systems.

The Office of the Correction of the People's Republic of China was established to monitor the operation of power in various places and accept reports. Therefore, Jia Huan was like an arm-man in all parts of the Jia Mansion, including the outside of the villages and shops. At the same time, the Office of the Correction of the People's Republic of China established various files and summarized documents for inquiry. The management system inside the Jia Mansion's outer house can basically be communicated and operated by documents.

However, as a result, as a system of this system, Jia Huan needs to sign some important documents.

Jia Huan thought about it and asked Jia Lian, "Did Lu Chengji return to Beijing?"

Jia Lian couldn't help but smile and said, "Of course not yet. He will not come to Beijing at least in February. Brother Huan, don't worry. As long as he comes to the capital, I will meet him immediately and talk about the Lin family's business."

Jia Huan nodded gently. He went to Lin's house for a drink in November. When he came back, he asked Jia Lian to talk to Lu Chengji, but only then he found out that the man had left Beijing and returned home (Shanxi).





Jia Huan let go of the specific details of Yuan Concubine visiting her relatives. She only waited for the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to meet with Yuanchun and talk in detail to determine Yuanchun’s ideas and her future.

The cold wind at night is swaying.

In the bright restaurant, beside the rectangular dining table, Jia Huan and his wives and concubines sighed how great it is to have electric lights. Daiyu, Xiangyun, and Baoqin are all eating here.

Xiangyun didn't believe it, clapped his hands and smiled, "Brother Huan, you're talking nonsense again."

While talking and laughing, Jia Huan remembered the pile of financial statements sent by Jia Lian, and said, "Sister, you can approve some of the expenses, income and budgets in the house on my behalf. I am really too lazy to care about it." He had to study newspapers and silver coins. Sister Bao was born into a family of imperial merchants. It turned out that when she was in the boudoir, she often helped Aunt Xue to record accounts.

Baochai wore a golden hairpin on her head, shaking her steps. In the candlelight, she was as bright as snow, and Jia Huan was looking at her almond eyes, and she chuckled and said, "Husband, I looked at your new account books, and the report was also very troubled. Hurry up and pick up Boss Lin and ask her to help you read it."

The other beauties laughed out loud. Jia Huan was very easy-going in private, which was everyone's consensus. Sister Bao took the lead in joking, and they naturally said "mockery".

Jia Huan shook his head with a wry smile.

This became a reason for Na Yuner: she asked her to help with business and accounting. Actually, it wasn’t! Yuner was already twenty-three years old, how many years could he let her wait?





In a blink of an eye, it was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. At 7 o'clock in the evening, Yuanchun started from the palace and came to the Jia Mansion. The Jia Mansion had experience from three years ago and would not have been waiting on Ningrong Street at 5 o'clock in the morning on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. It was just a bit of face-saving skill.

At around 8 o'clock in the evening, the frame of Yuanfei's concubine arrived at Ningrong Street. Ten pairs of eunuchs in red who were riding horses came to the head, followed by rows of eunuchs holding dragon flags and phoenixes and pheasants and Kui heads. Then there was Yuanchun's frame: eight strong eunuchs carried a golden roof and a golden embroidered phoenix carriage. Among them, wealth and gorgeous royal demeanor did not need to be repeated. Even the concubine who was neglected by the emperor, she was still a concubine. Etiquette and system would not go wrong.

Yuanchun entered directly from the main gate of Rongguo Mansion, passed Rongxi Hall, then entered the Grand View Garden, and accepted congratulations from inside and outside the Jia Mansion. Then he took a carriage to Jia Mu's main house on the west road of Jia Mansion to talk about his family ceremony.

In the room, Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Xing, Li Wan, Wang Xifeng, Baochai, Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xiuchun are inside.

In the courtyard, Jia Zheng, Jia Baoyu, Jia Huan, and Jia Lan stood up, waiting for Yuanchun to summon him.

Later, I heard a lot of crying inside.

The moon is as bright as water. The spring is chilly. Jia Huan sighs in his heart, unable to say.

How old is Yuanchun this year? He is twenty-three or four years old. He will fight against the future of the Jia family on her weak shoulders. During this period, Prince Jia died. How can he not cry?

After all, he did not let Yuanchun avoid the fate of having no children. How could he not sigh? But he would definitely save Yuanchun's life. The Jia family owe her too much.
