In the Jia Mansion, an edict from an angel has just been received.
Jia Cunzhou, a member of the Ministry of Industry of the Rongguo Prefecture, delayed the ordnance smelting due to poor performance. He was demoted and fined a salary. He was changed from a member of the Ministry of Industry of the fifth grade to the director of the Ministry of Industry! At the same time, he was fined a year's salary! He was ordered to shut up and think about his mistakes.
After working hard for more than ten years, I returned to before liberation.
From being a fifth-rank imperial official, he suddenly became a sixth-rank official. Very quickly!!
Jia Zheng fainted immediately after receiving the imperial edict, and Mrs. Wang also fainted at the same time. He struggled for half his life to become a Yiren, but now he can't even be considered a Yiren.
This matter is of course related to Xue Hong.
As a contributor to new steel products, there are still some small privileges. For example, you can name people from the Ministry of Industry to help Xue Hong with smelting and equipment manufacturing.
Xue Hong ordered Jia Zheng to be responsible for the smelting of new steel.
To be honest, this job is a credit-worthy job for any worker from the Ministry of Industry.
After all, Emperor Longqing is currently focusing on new steel materials and new rifles. If he does a better job, it is not impossible to upgrade two years ago.
But the person who took the initiative was Jia Zheng. He could be said to be the only person in the Ministry of Industry who knew nothing about any matters in the Ministry of Industry except poetry and poetry.
Jia Zheng was a typical stupid scholar. He always believed that everything was of inferior quality, but only reading was good. He also maintained his identity and refused to lower his profile to ask for advice from officials in the Ministry of Industry.
This also led to the fact that Jia Zheng was not able to build water conservancy projects, nor was he able to manufacture ordnance.
If I had to ask Jia Zhenghui what he was talking about, it would be two. He wouldn’t do this, and he wouldn’t do that.
Every time the Minister of Works saw Jia Zheng reading the Book of Songs at his workstation, he wanted to give him a kick.
This is the Ministry of Industry, not the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of Personnel, or the Hanlin Academy! If you don’t have the qualifications to be a Jinshi, you don’t have to be a Jinshi! Besides, none of the officials in the Ministry of Industry were passed through the imperial examination! You are an official because of your father, so pretend
Where are you cultural people here?
And Xue Hong knew this, so he appointed Jia Zheng to help with the smelting.
Low-level revenge: "Knife to knife, gun to gun, everyone knows you are enemies."
Advanced revenge: "I obviously gave you credit, but you didn't take it and overwhelmed yourself. Tsk, tsk, tsk... Not only will Jia Zheng not hate Xue Hong, he will also be grateful."
Although Xue Hong is not good at playing with people's hearts, for the Jia family, a group of ten men who can't make up four minded people, there is no need to use their brains to deal with them!
The men in Jia's family probably have all their talents, which makes them all so lackadaisical.
When Jia Zheng learned about it, he was so excited! He had always felt that his talent was not appreciated, so Xue Hong finally gave him a chance and was preparing to do something big.
As a result, he knew nothing and was just giving random orders. The progress of steel smelting was stagnant.
It's good that Emperor Longqing didn't fuck him directly in his anger. After all, there was still a director of the Ministry of Industry. Although he was from the sixth rank, he was still a capital official.
Jia Zheng was lying on the bed, surrounded by Jia Mu and Jia Baoyu. Mrs. Wang also fainted, and Wang Xifeng, Daiyu and Sanchun were waiting there.
Jia She led the imperial doctor in hastily.
The imperial doctor first saluted Jia Mu: "I have seen the old lady!"
Jia Mu said quickly: "Look at my Zheng'er quickly! Hurry up!"
The imperial doctor first checked his pulse, and then observed Jia Zheng's complexion and eyes.
"Don't be afraid, old lady. Mr. Jia is so angry that he is temporarily dizzy. Let me prescribe a prescription and drink it. The anger will be relieved and things will get better."
As one of the sources of gossip in the capital, the news of Jia Zheng's fainting quickly spread throughout the capital.
After Xue Hong heard the news, she fiddled with the stamens of a flower and smiled slightly: "Is it fun? It's a game! Just enjoy the process and play slowly. I have plenty of time!"
Xue Hong came to Beijing for such a long time to find out clearly. It was Wang Ziteng's idea that Xue Baochai entered the palace to participate in the general election, in order to use this to manipulate the Xue family.
After all, among the four major families, Prince Teng is the only one with real power. If Xue Baochai wants to live a better life in the palace, why not rely on his uncle?
It was originally decided that Xue Baochai would participate in the audition and be the princess's companion.
Mrs. Wang was afraid that Xue Baochai would overpower her daughter Yuan Chun, so she changed the small selection to a draft. The list was filled with draft girls.
If Xiaoxuan is working as a page for the princess, which is somewhat decent, then being a show girl and a palace maid is just like being a slave! Which palace maid in the palace has never been slapped or eaten by Zuo Zhengdeng?
Although Xue Hong has asked Zhu Hui to cross out Baochai from the draft list, Xue Hong will not end it like this!
As for Jia Zheng, although he is not a bad person, who asked you to marry a "good wife" like Mrs. Wang? You will naturally be part of Mrs. Wang's debt!
In the original work, at least half of the crimes of confiscating families and exterminating families were caused by Mrs. Wang.
They deceived Wang Xifeng into taking on lawsuits, issuing loan sharks, etc. It seemed that Wang Xifeng did these things, but in fact they believed that Mrs. Wang had instructed her behind her back.
After a small revenge against the Jia family, Xue Hong was in a rare good mood, sniffing the flowers and humming a song: "There are so many rivers and lakes, but the world is worth a smile."
Occasionally, I look down at the mortal world, how boring the world is.
The wind and rain let Xiaoxiao go..."
"Brother Hong, why are you so happy today?"
Baochai walked in holding a tray in his own hands, followed by Xiang Ling.
When Xue Hong saw it was Baochai, a gentle and warm smile appeared on his face: "Baochai, do you want to see me?"
Baochai chuckled and said, "Does Brother Hong not welcome my sister? Am I not allowed to come usually?"
Xue Hong: "This is a bit familiar...does every little girl say this?" Of course, this was what he was thinking in his heart. No matter how stupid Xue Hong was, he would not ask this in front of Baochai.
Baochai picked up a sachet from the tray and handed it to Xue Hong: "Brother Hong, this is the sachet I made myself. I know that Brother Hong never likes too strong fragrance, so I only seasoned it with a light fragrance."
Xue Hong finally sniffed the sachet and found that the fragrance was indeed not too strong, and it was somewhat similar to the fragrance on Baochai. After taking it, he hung it on his waist, opened his hands and took two steps back: "How?"
Baochai: "Brother Hong will naturally look good wearing it."
Xue Hong: "Thank you sister."
At this moment, Xue Hong felt happy: "What a considerate little cotton-padded jacket! The pain is not in vain! Wait for me to save some more credit, and I will earn you a county title or something!"
At the same time, Baochai, who smiles beautifully, also has his own little Jiujiu in his heart: "Brother Hong has my sachet hanging on him, maybe this way... he can think of me more."
