Shortly after Jia Lian arrived at Fengzao Palace, the Zhen family's mother and daughter also followed.
After polite congratulations, Zhen Yuhuan hugged Jia Lian's arm and whispered: "Brother Ye-in, I will be back to Nanjing in two days, but I have not said goodbye to Sister Yingchun and Sister Lin and the others..."
Jia Lian knew his intentions when he heard Xian, but he was still thinking about Chai Dai's affairs and did not want to cause trouble. So he smiled and said, "You have to ask your mother what she means."
Zhen Yuhuan immediately looked at her mother.
Seeing that his daughter was holding Jia Lian's arm and looking extremely intimate, the wife of the Zhen family understood a little bit about her daughter's feelings.
While feeling the charm of Jia Lian, he did not object to his daughter's closeness to Jia Lian. After all, with Jia Lian's current status, it would be a great luck for his daughter and the Zhen family to get along well with this brother-sister relationship.
Especially for the Zhen family now!
"Before we go back, we should go to see the old lady. However, we still have some things to do, so we should visit us later."
As the wife of Zhen said, she gave her daughter a look and taught her a lesson: "Your righteous brother just became a title, so there must be a lot of serious things to do, don't bother him."
"oh."
Zhen Yuhuan subconsciously let go of her hand. Seeing that Jia Lian didn't say anything, she just smiled at her and knew that what her mother was right.
Although she was a little disappointed and could not go back with Jia Lian, she immediately became happy when she heard her mother saying she would come to visit her house later.
"It's good." Jia Lian stood up, touched Zhen Yuhuan's head to comfort him, and then offered goodbye to Yuanchun.
When he went to the Daming Palace and Emperor Ningkang to bid farewell, Emperor Ningkang did not see him again. He only asked a eunuch to come out and let him leave the palace by himself.
Jia Lian was about to go back, but an armored military officer came out of Nan's study room.
Seeing Jia Lian, he immediately rushed to chase after him.
"Secretary Zhao Quan, pay homage to Duke Rong."
"Haha, Lao Zhao, you are quite well-informed. You deserve to be in charge of the Jinyiwei."
"Mr. The news of your title of Duke has spread all over the palace and outside the palace. It is difficult for the junior official to not know."
Jia Lian curled his lips and said, "Tell me, what's the matter with me?"
"Hahaha, nothing is wrong. The main reason is that the prince Shenlong is not seeing his head but not seeing his tail. It is rare to meet him here. How can a small official not pay homage?
Although the former official failed to go to Tiewang Mountain, he also heard about the glorious deeds of the prince.
If the Duke had not made a decision in the face of danger, leading his troops to rescue the Holy Lord and relieve the danger of Tiewang Mountain. Don’t say that Your Majesty’s great cause is difficult to accomplish. I am afraid that all of us who follow Your Majesty will die without a place to die.
Now, who is not grateful to the prince and who is not admired by the people around you now?
It is a pity that the hateful officials were ordered to patrol the capital and failed to witness the style of the prince with their own eyes."
Jia Lian laughed when he heard this.
He could tell that in addition to flattering the relationship, this guy also had a bit of bragging about himself.
The general idea is that you, Jia Lian, have made great contributions to Your Majesty, and are a celebrity around Your Majesty. I, Zhao Quan, are ordered to guard the capital and do not do badly around Your Majesty. We two brothers should be close to each other.
"Mr. Zhao is so ruthless. But he is just doing his best to do his best. You and I are no different. They are all matters and are not worth bragging about."
"My husband is right, he is superficial."
"But Lao Zhao just now, you talk about patrolling the capital. I have one thing, I am very dissatisfied with Lao Zhao."
Zhao Quan was shocked and hurriedly said, "I don't know what the prince said?"
"I heard that after I returned to Beijing, not long ago... about the second day of the turmoil in the capital, a group of guys who claimed to be Jinyiwei were doing a large-scale blackmail in the city in the name of arresting the rebels.
If they did not offer a lot of money according to their wishes, they would forcibly enter the door and search.
What's the difference between such behavior and thieves?"
When Zhao Quan heard this, his face suddenly showed a little unnatural.
The informal army of the Jinyiwei recruits mostly local rangers and rural brave men, commonly known as idle people in society.
Even if these people joined the Jinyiwei and became the personal army of the emperor, their nature would be difficult to change.
In addition, most of the things that are done are to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan. How difficult is it to be honest and honest?
Therefore, Zhao Quan knew that what Jia Lian said must be true. Not only was it true, but the money "seized" by those people, he, the commander of the Jinyiwei, also benefited a lot.
But he just doesn't say that there are smart people below, knowing which ones can be touched and which ones cannot be touched. He has also repeatedly explained to them to restrain themselves.
Unexpectedly, it even reached Jia Lian's ears. The key is that Jia Lian is still concerned about such a trivial matter and even hit him for this?
For a moment, Zhao Quan couldn't help but become suspicious.
"I don't know if this is still happening... Could it be a misunderstanding? After all, there were chaos in the capital over the past few days, and there were rebels and rebels everywhere. Some sluts took the opportunity to take advantage of the troubled waters and ruined the reputation of my Jinyiwei."
"Maybe. But Lord Zhao may not know that my wife has an aunt who married the Xue family in Jinling.
The mistress of the Xue family now lives in Beijing, right on the back street of my Jia Mansion.
On the day of the incident, the Xue family was also blackmailed.
On the day when I returned to Beijing, Zhuo Jing told me about this, and I was very angry at that time.
No matter how much the Jinyiwei is, he is the emperor's personal army, and he is doing his job for His Majesty. How could he do such a bandit? Wouldn't it be a corruption of His Majesty's reputation?
Now that I heard Lord Zhao say this, I realize that maybe I misunderstood. Please don’t blame Lord Zhao.”
Zhao Quan is not stupid, and he doesn’t know what’s going on after hearing this?
He also heard of the name of the Xue family. The century-old imperial merchants are famous for being rich. It is probably because the people below took the initiative to attack the Xue family, but now Jia Lian is making a name for the Xue family.
Seeing that Jia Lian bowed to him and looked like he had a misunderstanding, Zhao Quan felt even more afraid.
This is also a smiling tiger. It seems that he is not entirely from a good background and will flatter His Majesty...
"I have remembered what the Duke of the Kingdom, please don't worry, whether it is someone who pretends to be an official in the Jinyiwei, or someone who is in the Jinyiwei who is really ignoring the laws of the country to make money, the officials will definitely do it.
Find out the truth and give the grandfather an explanation." Zhao Quan said solemnly.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Jia Lian smiled and bowed: "Mr. Zhao is so serious. If there is something unparalleled, I will say goodbye first."
"The prince is walking slowly."
Seeing Jia Lian's back gradually disappearing under the white jade steps, Zhao Quancai slowly stood up and narrowed his eyes.
As the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei, the nominal boss, he holds great power, and he is not afraid of Jia Lian.
However, Jia Lian has many identities, and this situation is not only not dealt with, but has been awarded the title by Emperor Ning Kang, which surprised him and also felt a strong sense of fear.
Such a powerful character who is at the forefront of the storm and has not been defeated by the storm will naturally not offend him if he can not offend him. It would be even better if he can get along well.
After all, they are all close ministers of Emperor Ningkang, so it is better to have a good relationship with everyone.
Therefore, he would definitely give it to Jia Lian's confession. Because this matter is in the wrong way. If Jia Lian leads it to Emperor Ning Kang, although Emperor Ning Kang may not have done anything to him for this little thing, it is not a good thing.
...
When the sound of horse hooves trampled through the long street and rang in front of the Xue family, Aunt Xue calmed down and went out to greet her.
Seeing Jia Lian alone, walking across the Yimen, Aunt Xue felt that Jia Lian was more handsome and natural than before, and her body seemed to be surrounded by a noble and sacred aura, which made people dare not see.
An almost flattering smile appeared on her face unconsciously.
"I don't know that the Duke of the Kingdom is here, and I'm not here to welcome you. I hope the Duke of the Kingdom will not blame you."
Facing Aunt Xue’s pretending gift, Jia Lian, who had already walked to her, just casually stretched out a hand to support her, and then asked, “Where is Bao Yatou and Lin Yatou?”
"Lin Yatou heard that you have been named Duke, and knew that you would not have time to accompany them out of the city to play, so she went back early.
Baoya is bathing."
Take a shower again? Didn’t you just take a shower last night?
As if she saw Jia Lian’s thoughts, Aunt Xue smiled and said, “Bao girl has been so timid since she was a child, and she has to take a shower almost every day in summer. However, she was not so diligent in the past, and I don’t know what’s wrong today.”
Aunt Xue said, and glanced at Jia Lian with great meaning.
How Jia Lian didn't understand, it probably meant to be tolerant of those who please themselves.
Actually, Jia Lian didn't know that although Baochai took a shower last night, his operation later made her daughter feel uncomfortable.
But when I returned to Hengwuyuan, it was already late at night, and I didn't want Ying'er and others to see the clues, so I had to go to bed with barely.
Then I tossed and couldn't sleep all night.
Just now seeing Daiyu go back, Baochai thought that Jia Lian might come to Xue's family, so she wanted to take the opportunity to rest and rectify and strive to face Jia Lian in the best condition.
When he came to the house, he saw Jia Lian sitting down, and said nothing. Aunt Xue asked the maid who poured the tea to retreat, then walked to Jia Lian and said with some worries: "Liang'er is still giving birth to me for yesterday's incident.
gas?"
Upon hearing this, Jia Lian put down the teacup in his hand, looked at Aunt Xue, and said with a smile: "When my aunt wanted to break the contract before, did she think about this situation today?"
But it’s not that Jia Lian is successful, but because Aunt Xue is a good person in many places, she is a little short-sighted.
This is the attitude towards such people.
Aunt Xue's eyes showed a little embarrassed, but in fact, she had already regretted her intestines.
Originally, she had a good relationship with Jia Lian, but she almost made a mistake in making mistakes because of her mistake in judgment.
She glanced at the door and came directly to Jia Lian, pressed the hem of her skirt, and then knelt down.
"Lian'er, it's because my aunt is not good. I have no eyes and almost made a big mistake.
But all this is my fault and has nothing to do with Baoya. Before, she believed that you would not lose from beginning to end, and that you would not let her down, so she never thought of breaking the contract.
If you are angry, you can just vent your feelings on me. Don’t make things difficult for Baomei, okay?"
Aunt Xue supported her knees with her hands and raised her head, as if she was a child admitting her mistake. There was still a little bit of the majesty of an elder?
Even Jia Lian did not expect Aunt Xue to be so bachelor.
Although she asked her to kneel last night, she thought about how she was sincere to the Xue family and putting so much effort into it, but the other party wanted to cut the bridge across the river. She was angry and her attitude was naturally strong.
Now that he is exhausted, he feels a little uncomfortable when he sees Aunt Xue like this.
After all, Aunt Xue is not only Feng Jie'er's aunt, but also Baochai's biological mother. According to his wishes for Baochai, this is his mother-in-law.
So he was embarrassed to hold on and said, "Since you know you are wrong, don't do such a heartbreaking thing again in the future.
Otherwise, even if I like Baoyao, I may not have the same patience with the Xue family.
OK, get up, it’s not good to let Baoya see it.”
Aunt Xue said when she heard this, you know that it’s not good to be seen by Bao Mei. She was so fierce last night, why didn’t she say that when she asked someone to kneel down?
Anyway, her dignity had long been torn off by Jia Lian, and there was no one else in the room. As long as she could eliminate the barriers in Jia Lian and restore Jia Lian's attitude towards the Xue family, towards her and Baochai, she would also give up.
Not only did she not stand up as she said, she instead made a move to kneel forward two steps, held Jia Lian's legs with both hands, and said with a plea: "Okay, Auntie will follow your instructions and arrangements in the future, and will never do anything that will be sorry to you again...
…
That... You are only taking Baoyao and Lin Yatou out of the city for fun today. Are you planning to reveal Baoyao's identity to Fengyao and the others?"
Looking at Aunt Xue who had already squeezed between her legs, Jia Lian narrowed his eyes slightly.
Based on his understanding of women and Aunt Xue, he did not think that the other party was an unintentional act.
Should you be unable to endure loneliness or eat the marrow and know the taste, or do you have any other thoughts?
Jia Lian was too lazy to guess, he only knew that Baochai could come here at any time.
Therefore, after subconsciously reaching out and touching Aunt Xue's still smooth face, he stood up and said, "You guessed that, from now on, you can also announce your relationship with me.
When I turn around, I will find someone to make a marriage letter and ask a respected person to come to the door to serve as a matchmaker. If my aunt has any ideas, she can also bring it up and I will try to satisfy her.
Okay, the ground is cold, you'd better get up, I'll go outside and wait for Baoyao."
After Jia Lian finished speaking, he left the room, leaving only the stunned and resentful Aunt Xue.
Aunt Xue smiled gently and stood up with her forehead.
He also said that he was really meaty and vegetarian, lawless, and ate her mother and son tightly.
It turns out that he will be afraid.
Although her actions just now were mainly to express repentance, she was not afraid of temptation to revenge.
Wasn't it that possible last night? I really thought he wasn't afraid of being caught by Baoyao!
She was worried before, but after last night's incident, she knew exactly where Baochai was in Jia Lian's heart.
So she was no longer worried.
He even wanted to turn against the enemy and tease Jia Lian.
While Jia Lian's reaction made her a little regretful, she was more admiring and relieved.
I admire Jia Lian as a person who can do great things and cannot be controlled by impulse.
It was so gratifying that she had seen the right person from the beginning and asked Baoyao to follow him, but she couldn't make any mistakes.
Thinking of what Jia Lian said that he could announce his relationship with him from today, Aunt Xue became more and more happy.
From now on, who dares to underestimate the Xue family, who dares to covet the wealth of the Xue family...
