Chapter 16 Meeting Master Jia She

After entering Rongguo Mansion, Jia Lian and Lin Daiyu went to Rongqing Hall first.

Although Rongqingtang is a courtyard, it is also a courtyard house with five entrances. In today's society, it is worth at least one billion.

After Jia Lian and everyone were greeted, they stood aside and watched the old lady act there.

The old lady hugged Lin Daimei and said good-looking jade, but in fact, as far as Jia Lian remembers, although the old lady treats Lin Daiyu well, she actually thinks of getting together Lin Daiyu and Dabaoyu.

I won’t talk about anything else for now, just identity alone is an insult to Lin Daiyu.

What is Lin Daiyu's identity? She has four generations of marquises. Her father was a senior official of the court who was a third rank. Now she has been promoted from the second rank and has become a senior official of the court.

As for the big-faced jade, although his ancestor was Duke Rongguo, his father Jia Zheng was not only the second son of the Rongguo Mansion, but also had not risen in the officialdom for twenty years and had been the head of the Ministry of Works for more than twenty years.

As soon as he entered the court, he was the head of the Ministry of Works of the Sixth Century. It can be said that Jia Zheng’s starting point was already very high. You should know that the top scholar was only from the sixth Century, and Jia Zheng was half a level higher than the top scholar.

However, Jia Zheng's ability can be seen for more than 20 years.

Where is the Ministry of Industry?

That is the government office that is most likely to achieve results but not the most likely to cause trouble.

It can be said that as long as you repair something, it is the work of the Ministry of Works, such as repairing the imperial palace, repairing the imperial tomb, river dredging, water conservancy engineering, and military equipment construction. These are all part of the Ministry of Works. If you have some ability to do two things, with the strength of the Jia family, you can upgrade to one and a half level. Even if you are not capable enough, you can spread money. Establish good relations with your colleagues and officials below, and you can add his name when you report the meritorious service.

If you add a name like this, plus the title of Rongguo Mansion, as long as you are not stupid, I believe no one will refuse it.

However, Jia Zheng didn't know how to do it himself, and did not deal with his colleagues well. He spent all day drinking tea and chatting with his guests at home.

Let me put it this way, anyone with some ability can easily become a fourth-rank official under the reputation of the Jia family.

Jia Zheng, a person like Jia Yucun who defected to the Jia family, could even give him a certain amount of Yingtian Prefecture magistrate, let alone the Jia family's own family.

Thinking of this, Jia Lian was a little disdainful. What was good at studying and grandfather liked it, but it was all released by the old lady. The corresponding one was that his father Jia She was greedy for flowers, lust, ignorant, and unskilled, and did not do his job. They also spread along with it.

Thinking of his cheap father Jia She, Jia Lian wants to go back and ask carefully what the situation is.

However, before Jia Lian could ask Jia She, someone came to Jia Lian first.

This person is Jia Lian’s cheap daughter-in-law, the fairy concubine, Wang Xifeng.

When Jia Lian first returned to the mansion, he met Wang Xifeng.

She looks beautiful, with a pair of triangular eyes of a phoenix, two bent willow leaves hanging eyebrows, slim figure and coquettish body. When she appears, she dresses up brilliantly and smiles first, like a fairy of a godly concubine.

After leaving Rongqingtang, Jia Lian was dragged back to his yard by Wang Xifeng. After seeing that all the maids and mothers left quickly, Wang Xifeng pulled Jia Lian to bed...

To be honest, if Jia Lian hadn't had Lu Bu's courage, he would have been a little overwhelmed.

Wang Xifeng looks like she is only in her twenties, and she is as old as a flower and jade, but she is actually like a woman in her thirties.

After satisfying Wang Xifeng, Wang Xifeng then talked about the affairs in the mansion with a bright face.

"I'll ask you, what's wrong with the master recently?" Jia Lian asked.

"Master?" Wang Xifeng was a little confused, but said: "What else can Master do? It's nothing more than drinking and playing with antique fans. There's nothing unusual."

Jia Lian pondered for a moment before saying, "I'll go to the master's place later. I still want to ask the master about some things, otherwise I will feel uneasy."

"What can you pay so much attention to Second Master?" Wang Xifeng was curious.

In her impression, she had never seen Jia Lian be so serious.

Jia Lian glanced at her and said coldly: "I just want to know why my father lived in the East Courtyard for more than 20 years?"

"What else can it be? Isn't it just that my ancestors don't like it." Wang Xifeng said casually.

Jia Lian sneered: "Do you know what my father's word is?"

"Well, I heard my second uncle talk about the master's name." Wang Xifeng was very confused. What did this have to do with the words.

"Yes, it's Enhou, but do you know who took the two words Enhou?"

"Isn't it the old man? Who else can it be?"

Jia Lian glanced at her and snorted coldly: "How could the old man give his father the word "Enhou Marquis? If he had this word, wouldn't he be asking the emperor for the title of marquis? How could the old man have such a taboo?"

"No way? Is there such a taboo?" Wang Xifeng was stunned, and then asked in confusion: "As you said, it was not raised by the old man, who could it be raised by it?"

Jia Lian said leisurely: "The Supreme Emperor."

Wang Xifeng was stunned.

"Who did you hear these?"

"When I was in Yangzhou, I found a few old people who came out of the mansion and learned from them." Jia Lian said.

"Then..." Wang Xifeng still couldn't accept it.

How could my father-in-law, who is lustful, ignorant and unskilled in his career, have such glory times?

Jia Lian ignored Wang Xifeng and, under Ping'er's service, put on his clothes and went to the East Courtyard.

After three or two twists, Jia Lian came to the East Courtyard.

At this time, there was already a person sitting in the lobby. This person was about forty years old. Jia Lian knew at a glance that the person in front of him was his cheap father Jia She.

"Master, Master Lian is here." After the maid said that, she retreated to the side.

"Please pay tribute to the master. My son hasn't seen the master for several months. I miss him very much. I wonder if he is in good health?" Jia Lian hurriedly asked.

Jia She glanced at Jia Lian in surprise, then said, "What's wrong with me? Isn't that the case? But you, I heard that you have done a lot of things for your uncle in Yangzhou, but I didn't expect that you will gain the ability after going out."

Jia Lian smiled and became more and more sure that his cheap father was hiding his weakness, otherwise how could the Yangzhou incident reach his ears?

"I'm entrusting the master's blessing. The list given by the master has helped my son a lot, otherwise it will be a question whether his son can come back alive," Jia Lian thanked.

"Okay, stop talking about this." Jia She said impatiently: "Tell me, what's the matter with me?"

Jia Lian looked at Jia She and asked, "My son wants to know why his father is so self-deprecating?"

Jia She was not surprised when she heard this. She glanced at Jia Lian and said impatiently: "What are you self-deprecating and not self-deprecating? You can just say something. Just be optimistic about your wife and talk less about these messy things."

Jia Lian didn't care, and continued: "My son has been very confused since he was very confused. The master obviously did nothing, so why did he bear those bad reputations? Moreover, the master didn't care. My son really couldn't figure it out, so he asked his father to solve his doubts."

Jia She glanced at him deeply, and was silent for a moment before saying, "Since you want to know so much, I will tell you."

"The reason why I live in the East Courtyard is to avoid disasters without taking the initiative. Otherwise, it will be a little bit more to say whether my Jia family can exist."

Jia Lian immediately understood that, as expected, just like what he thought, the reason why his cheap father Jia She gave up was to protect himself and protect Duke Rong's mansion in a self-deprecating way.

"Then where does this disaster come from?" Jia Lian asked.

Hearing this question, Jia She seemed to remember something, and after a moment, she sighed and slowly spit out two words: "Prince."
