Chapter 39 Gifts
Jia Qiang didn't know what "Holy Family" was, so he doubted whether the Supreme Emperor had forgotten the promise he had made.
But Emperor Long'an knew what the words "I like you" mean...
These four words could not bring Jia Qiang any promotion or promotion. Even during the imperial examination, if he met a distinguished examiner, he would look at him differently as a "fake minister".
But these four words are like a talisman, protecting Jia Qiang under the supreme power of the Supreme Emperor!
Although Jia Qiang cannot rely on it to gain momentum and do whatever she wants, she can get a protective amulet that no one can hurt.
The more powerful and powerful the person is, the less they can touch Jia Qiang before the influence of these four words fades away.
This is the so-called Holy Family!
Emperor Long'an also understood why the Supreme Emperor, who had seen countless talents and beauties in his life, would say these four words.
Generally speaking, when an emperor expresses his love for his subordinates, he will not speak directly. It is enough to only reward him with something he carries with him.
It is rare to express the emperor's heart as directly as the Supreme Emperor.
It can be seen that the Supreme Emperor praised and agreed with Jia Qiang's words.
The Emperor was a wise man throughout his life, but in his later years in power, he indulged in extravagant enjoyment and built large-scale construction projects, which wasted countless children of the country.
If it hadn't been for the natural disasters that plagued the Yan Dynasty in the last few years, the emperor, who was extremely wise in the early years, was now unable to rectify the affairs of the court. It was difficult to provide relief and was in dire straits. In addition, the dragon's body was hollowed out by all-night drinking and beauty, and even the emperor could not even go to court.
Even if it is difficult, the Supreme Emperor may not abdicate the throne early and hide in the Jiuhua Deep Palace to cultivate and cultivate himself.
The Supreme Emperor, who had already realized his mistakes in his later years, did not show up even when Emperor Long'an was firmly on the throne and gradually showed his talents, dismissing more than a dozen important ministers of Jingchu in one fell swoop.
But this does not mean that the Supreme Emperor is willing to bear the stain of his later years.
If he can find a good excuse to wash away this stain, the Supreme Emperor, who is about to conclude his life's merits and demerits, will never miss a chance.
And Jia Qiang, who said these words unintentionally, was the God-given opportunity he had been waiting for!
How could the Supreme Emperor not like it?
"How did such detailed words come from Jiuhua Palace?"
Emperors are always suspicious, and Emperor Long'an was no exception.
He did have an informant in Jiuhua Palace, but it was impossible for this informant to come within twenty steps of the Supreme Emperor. How could he hear such detailed information?
The second eunuch bowed and said: "Back to my master, it was Wei Wu, the eunuch in charge of Jiuhua Palace, who personally said this to his adopted son Huang Quan. It seems that he did it intentionally."
When Emperor Long'an heard this, his face became uncertain, and he waved his hand to ask the eunuch to leave.
The first eunuch, on the other hand, carefully arrived at the imperial desk and stood to wait on him.
Emperor Long'an ignored him, handed the fold to Empress Yin beside him, and sneered: "This Jia Qiang is also a bastard. He actually bewitched the Supreme Emperor and praised extravagance. He also said that the Supreme Emperor's achievements were no less than those of Taizu.
, Shizu, what a bastard!"
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
After Emperor Long'an had vented his anger, Empress Yin, who quickly read the fold, gently closed the fold and said with a smile: "That Jia Qiang grew up in the Ningguo Mansion, and has enjoyed wealth and wealth since he was a child. How does he know how to put diligence and thrift first?
But at this age, it’s pretty good to be able to tell these fallacies, no wonder he caught the eye of the Supreme Emperor.”
Emperor Long'an snorted, took the secret fold from Empress Yin's hand, and then threw it on the imperial case, saying coldly: "At such a young age, I don't know the heights of the world. I presume to speculate on the Emperor's heart and end my own future."
Empress Yin didn't seem to care much, and said with a smile: "This is not worth taking. Throughout the ages, there have been many loyal ministers and ministers who have done the same things as Jia Qiang, but they didn't say it out loud. They are not like Jia Qiang."
Childish. As for those who have no future, it is not a matter of a word from the emperor."
Emperor Long'an shook his head and said: "Since the Supreme Emperor has made it clear that he cannot enter the court, then he will not be able to enter the court. This is Jun Wu's joke. Doesn't he not want to kneel to others? Now he has the blessing of the Supreme Emperor
, just let him be a rich and idle man."
Empress Yin heard this and said with a smile: "Then he wants to thank the emperor for his kindness. But Your Majesty, since the Supreme Emperor in Jiuhua Palace intends to spread this matter, it is better for the Emperor to issue an order to take care of it. In the first place, this is the most filial piety for the Emperor.
.Secondly, although among the founding heroes, only the Prince of Beijing retained his title, the Prince of Beijing was still young and his prestige among the distinguished ministers was still low. However, the historians had a family of two princes, but they had already turned to the heroes of Yuanping. Therefore,
The Jia family, a family with two fathers, still has a huge influence among the founding heroes. The emperor wants to use the founding heroes to balance the line of Yuanping heroes, so he might as well give some imperial favor to his family. And in this way, the officials in Fengzao Palace
My concubine, the female minister, will also be grateful to the emperor."
When Emperor Long'an heard this, he twitched the corner of his mouth, glanced sideways at Empress Yin, who was smiling charmingly with her mouth covered, shook her head, frowned slightly and said: "If you follow the emperor's wishes, you are not giving imperial favor to the Jia family."
Jia Qiang's departure from the clan was the intention of Jia She, Jia Zhen and Jia Zheng. If justice is given to Jia Qiang, shouldn't Jia Zhen be harmed?"
Empress Yin shook her head and chuckled: "Your Majesty gave Jia Qiang justice by letting him return to the Duke's palace to enjoy the glory and wealth. This is the great grace of God. And this is also to help the Jia family cover up a big scandal. If
The emperor punishes Jia Zhen severely, and this matter will inevitably spread. By then, everyone will know that the Jia family is an immoral family, and Jia Qiang will not be in any good situation. Moreover, not only will their own faces be disgraced.
, even the female minister of the Jia family in my palace will be implicated. Didn’t the Xue family of Jinling want to send a daughter to the palace before, but was accused of his brother’s misbehavior and the Xue family’s lack of virtue and was sent back? Your Majesty
Send someone to the Jia family to praise Jia Qiang, and the Jia family will naturally know what to do. And with this person here, wouldn't it be convenient for the emperor to use the founding hero in the future? Everyone knows now that he is the emperor's favorite
After the hero."
When Emperor Long'an heard this, he suddenly raised his eyes and his eyes lit up, but he heard Empress Yin smile again and say: "But judging from Jia Qiang's words and deeds in front of the emperor, as well as his grudges with the Jia family, he may not be willing to return to the Jia family.
Now he is alone outside, but he is very carefree."
Emperor Long'an snorted and said, "It's not up to him! How can the favor given by the Heavenly Family be so easy to bear?"
Queen Yin nodded when she heard this, but couldn't help but sneer in her heart: So, it's not that the Supreme Emperor said he was not allowed to go to court, Jia Qiang really couldn't go to court. After all, we have to see who is in charge of the power in the world!
…
Returning to the house near Qingta Temple from the street, Jia Qiang fell down to sleep quite exhausted.
What we encountered today contained great opportunities amid great dangers, but the pressure involved was also unparalleled.
After repeatedly recalling today's conversation and the Emperor's reaction, including the changes in expressions of the young man beside him and the eunuch, I finally settled on the words "I like you" and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At least, it won't turn into a bad thing.
Jia Qiang fell asleep, but frightened Aunt Chun and others.
Even Liu Laoshi and Tieniu, Aunt Chun and Liu Da Niu surrounded Tietou and Zhuzi, asking why Jia Qiang came back with such an ugly face.
Tietou and Zhuzhu were also confused, and they only recounted today's itinerary several times.
In the end, the blame was placed on those noble people who called Jia Qiang into the "Mei" room.
Aunt Chun heard this and cursed loudly: "You two losers, just yesterday you knelt down and kowtowed and begged Brother Qiang to accept you as his long-term follower, and now you are just watching him being bullied. I believe your mother."
Damn it, aren’t you the ones who usually hold your breath and scream without fear of death?”
Tietou said helplessly: "The uncle told us not to follow, and without his order, we can't take action at will... Aunt Chun, you don't know where the Zuixian Tower is. Just the money for a box is enough
It’s almost ten taels of silver, not counting food and drink..."
"What?!"
Liu Laoshi's family's jaws almost dropped. Ten taels of silver was just the price of a box. Even when Jia Qiang was still in Ningguo Mansion, she probably had never been so extravagant, right?
Zhu Zhu nodded repeatedly and said: "It looks like the place where the emperor lives, and the people who come in and out are all nobles. How can we dare to do anything without the uncle's order? We are not afraid of death, but we are afraid of causing trouble to the uncle."
Aunt Chun said angrily: "You are the only ones who talk nonsense..." Then she muttered: "The rent alone is only ten taels of silver, so how much money did you spend in total?"
Tietou immediately became happy and said with a smile: "It didn't cost me any money. The old man from Mei Zijian paid the bill to me."
Aunt Chun was overjoyed when she heard this, and then shook her head and said: "You are laughing at your big-headed devil! You guys know nothing. For noble people like them, money is nothing. Don't owe favors. Favors are much more valuable than money!"
"
Tietou, Zhuzi, and Tietou and others were all impressed when they heard this. They didn't expect that Aunt Chun could say such profound words.
But Liu Da Niu stood aside and said with a smile: "This is what Qiang'er said a few days ago. Why did you pick it up and say it?"
Aunt Chun was so angry that she wanted to beat this unfilial daughter, but she heard a sudden knock on the courtyard door:
"Pah, pah, pah."
"Pah, pah, pah."

When I was revising this chapter, the coding software suddenly crashed, and there was only a question mark left in this chapter. I was so shocked that I almost smashed the screen with a punch, took out the software and beat it hard, but in the end I still endured it.
Come on, after all, a computer costs several thousand dollars and I can’t afford to smash it...
