Because Concubine Hong was officially granted the title of Grand Concubine, the Hong family in Fengshan suddenly rose up and was restored to the family of Concubine Dawang Yuanfei.

When Prince Simo's grandfather, Prince Bunseng, paid tribute to the king, Concubine Hong naturally moved up the ranks and moved into Gyeongbokjeon of Changdeokgung Palace where Princess Jeongsun originally lived. As the queen, she became one of the most powerful people in the harem.

The Fengshan Hong family can be said to be "a man who has attained enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven", so naturally he opened the temple door and offered sacrifices. Hong Jinglai is now regarded as the pillar of the Fengshan Hong family, although it was only his great-grandfather who was linked to the Fengshan Hong family at that time.

But now there is no way to judge from this thing. Naturally, one has to speak based on power.

Of course, the person who is officiating is Hong Shourong, the head of the clan, but the one who is being honored is undoubtedly our Hong Jinglai, and no one dares to compete. Previously, there were two old bones who appeared from nowhere and said that there is a difference between closeness and distance. Hong Youji and

The two younger brothers, Hong Jingfu, immediately jumped on to "theory".

The current Hong Jinglai is not watching from afar at all, but is the leader of the Fengshan Hong clan upright. Even Hong Shourong, the second-rank clan leader, knows that he is definitely not as good as Hong Jinglai.

It was only at this time that Hong Jinglai saw the complete family tree of the Hong family in Fengshan. It was really amazing. Before the Zhengzong Dynasty, he was indeed the first-class noble family in Beijing.

Hong Kuo: Li Cao Judgment.

Hong Joo-won: The consort of King Seonjo of Joseon who married Princess Jeongmyeong.

Hong Wanrong: The second son of Hong Zhuyuan, the court official of the Joseon Dynasty.

Hong Zhongji: Hong Wanrong’s eldest son, Li Cao’s judgment was presented to Zuo Zan (1650-1706)

Hong Xuanfu: Hong Zhongji’s second son, Hong Wanyong’s grandson, was a ceremonial judge during the reign of King Yeongjong of Joseon.

Hong Fenghan: Lord of Yongfeng Prefecture (1713-1778), who was in charge of political affairs during the reign of King Yeongjo.

Hong Lexin: The second son of Hong Fenghan, he was appointed as the governor of Wuweidu in 1766.

The leaders of the Hong family in Fengshan of every generation are the top group in the Hanyang Jinghua gentry circle. They have been standing on the wave of Hanyang for two hundred years. No wonder that even when the family was in ruins and the family was in decline, Concubine Hong said to help

It only takes one sentence to get Hong Jinglai to come back and become a high-ranking official in the capital.

Especially when it comes to the unfolded real images, Hong Wanrong has to make a point of mention. Although Hong Jinglai knew that these real images were not very realistic, he could tell just by looking at the portraits that he was extraordinary. His demeanor was natural and measured, and his face was majestic and square.

Hong Jingyu thought that he would definitely not be able to compare with him based solely on his looks and bearing.

Moreover, this man was indeed powerful in history. In addition to the eldest son, there were four sons and three daughters who survived, which greatly expanded the entire family. They continued to marry and build a huge network of relationships.

Hong Chongfan: Hong Wanrong’s second son, Qianzheng (1662-?).

Hong Chongyan: the third son of Hong Wanrong, official envoy (1668-?).

Hong Chongchou: Hong Wanrong's fourth son, participated in the trial (1670-?).

Hong Chongfu: Hong Wanrong's five sons, participated in the trial (1672-?).

Hong Xizheng: Hong Wanrong's eldest daughter (1651-?), married to Li Dacheng (originally the Li family of Quanzhou).

Hong Duan was pregnant: the second daughter of Hong Wanrong (1655-?), whose marriage annotation was written by Shen Guirui (original name is Qingsong Shen).

Hong Miaozhen: The third daughter of Hong Wanrong (1660-?), married the county magistrate Li Shiliang (originally the Li family of Quanzhou).

Inheriting his genes, the descendants of the Hong family in Fengshan spread out and contributed to the entire family. The population became more prosperous and the marriages became closer. Now Hong Jinglai only needs to go to the streets of Hanyang as a nephew of the Hongfei clan, and all Hanyang can be conquered.

Almost all the nobles in Beijing could be related to Hong Jinglai.

After all, he is considered a cheap ancestor. I kowtow a little. Thank you all the big guys who have become immortals and ascended to heaven. For sending us Hong Jing a tenth-generation hairpin with the status of a noble clan. I will ensure your incense in this life and help you regain your reputation if I have the opportunity.

Frame the real shadow.

This time, the Hong family also came with her. As a consecrated woman, her status was here. After the men had finished worshiping, the women who were bound to worship had to go inside to worship. The two groups of nobles in the Li Dynasty still generally followed this point.

According to Zhu Xi's family rituals, men and women are completely separated and will not be sacrificed at the same time.

After everything was done, the mother and son came out of the ancestral hall. There was supposed to be a banquet, but Hong Jing came to push it away. It wasn't that he didn't want to socialize, but he wanted to take the Hong family into the palace to express gratitude.

Because of her son's success, and the fact that the entire Hong family in Fengshan was suddenly promoted, the Hong family was suddenly granted the title of Lady of the Third Grade County. In terms of status as a married woman, she was now on an equal footing with Hong Jinglai. Therefore, she naturally wanted to enter the palace and pay homage to Princess Jin.

The family, as well as the king and concubine Hong, expressed their gratitude.

Hong Jinglai also had to receive the official document and pay a visit to Jin Zuchun, the Chief Superintendent of Du Chengzhi of the Chengzhengyuan. Yes, the Superintendent of Du Chengzhi was also our Supervisor Jin Zushun.

After coming out of the palace, Hong Jinglai helped Hong Jinglai into the sedan chair, but the weather had not cooled down completely, and Hong was no longer a young girl who had not left the palace, so she opened the window and started chatting with Hong Jinglai.

"The Concubine has just let out a sigh of relief and no longer insists on wanting the daughter of Zhao Dayin's family." Hong didn't say it loudly, but Hong Jinglai was riding next to his sedan chair, so he heard her clearly.

"Well? Your Majesty has relented?" Concubine Hong hopes that the Fengshan Hong family and the Fengyang Zhao family will join forces, and now she hopes to get married to the Andong Jin family. Who knows what she is thinking.

"The empress is also very helpful to the Min Shen family."

"What!" Hong Jinglai only listened to these words, and suddenly he felt as clear as if he had eaten a big bowl of iced sour plum soup in the dog days of summer.

"Keep your voice down, the empress said she would contact her on her behalf." Hong herself was actually happy, but she was still calmer than Hong Jinglai, a novice with a head full of brains.

“Save money, save money!”

Hong continued to ramble on, but Hong Jinglai also roughly understood the cause and effect. Zhao Zhenyi's family had no sons, and he was going to be extinct. If he married his daughter, he could inherit his political legacy. But now that is no longer possible, Zhao Wanyong's eldest brother Zhao Yuanyong, who is an official abroad, has succeeded him.

In this case, the son-in-law's share of the political legacy will definitely be significantly less, so I won't consider it anymore.

As for the daughters of the Andong Jin family, the ones in the near branch have basically been used by Jin Zuchun, and the ones in the far branch are all in a shabby state, and they are no longer close to the current family of the Hong family in Fengshan.

In addition, Hong Jinglai was already thirty years old, so he really shouldn't delay it any longer. After all, he had passed the Jinshi examination and was already in office. The only important thing left was to marry a wife and have children to carry on the family line.

Therefore, although Concubine Hong also thought about letting Jin Zuchun adopt a daughter from Yuanzhi as an adopted daughter and marry Hong Jingrae, for some reason this matter was not pushed forward. Now marrying the daughter of Zuo Zhen and Ye Cao's counselor family of Uijeongbu is also an option.

Just think of it as strengthening the marriage between the two.
