dream of red mansion

Therefore, I am going to ask the Holy One for an order tomorrow, so that the imperial concubine and empress will return to the government to visit her relatives on August [-], Zhongyuan day. Do you think it is appropriate? "

In Mengpo Zhai, Jia Zheng sat at the head and said to Jia Qing with a smile on his face.

Jia Lian and Jia Qing were sitting on the row of chairs below. At this time, there were still a few of Jia Zheng's clean-up guests sitting in the room, but they had already discussed it beforehand, and now they were just asking for Jia Qing's opinion, so they didn't open their mouths. .

Originally, Jia Amnesty was also here, but he left with an excuse before Jia Qing arrived.

"Second Uncle's decision is very good. Since the Mid-Autumn Festival is the day of reunion, and it can avoid the coming hot weather, it is the most suitable time to welcome your mother to visit relatives." Jia Qing agreed.

Seeing that Jia Qing had no objection, Jia Zheng was even happier, and said again: "Okay, let's settle this matter first, and I will write a letter tomorrow, asking the Holy One to make a decision.

Also, I have asked Jia Lian to take care of the things that are missing in the garden. You can also see what is missing in the garden, and let your second brother Lian do it too. "

Jia Qing looked at Jia Lian who was on the side.Seeing Jia Lian, he smiled back at Jia Qing.

"Okay. If that's the case, Second Brother Lian, please take care of me."

"Where, this is what I should do. The second brother has been busy with my mother's affairs for half a year, and now I am just helping with small things, so there is no need to bother. If there is something wrong with me, Also please second brother don’t have any scruples, just point it out.”

"Second Brother Lian, you are welcome..."

Seeing Jia Lian almost asking for instructions and reporting to him, Jia Qing suddenly felt a little guilty...

Regarding Jia Zheng's entrusting Jia Lian with the task of arranging the garden, Jia Qing knew that Jia Zheng did not mean to seize power.Purchasing means buying things, and buying things means spending money!

In the past six months, Jia Qing has done it by himself and put all his energy into the construction of the garden. It is because of Jia Qing's responsible and serious attitude that the garden can be completed at such a miraculous speed of seven or eight months.Jia Zheng was extremely satisfied with this.

It's just that while I'm satisfied, it's inevitable that I'm also a little ashamed.

Jia Zheng had an approximate amount of money that Ningguo Mansion actually invested in the entire garden construction process.Although Jia Qing said at the beginning that if he was allowed to build it, he could save a lot of money from the people below, and only need less than 30 taels of silver to build it, so the Ningguo Mansion would not pay much more.

At first, Jia Zheng also thought this was the case, but after seeing Jia Qing's attitude of striving for perfection in everything, he realized that Jia Qing's work was not to save money, but to save the money and build a better garden. .....

According to Jia Lian's report to him, the money spent by the Ningguo Mansion is estimated to have exceeded at least 30 taels of silver!The cost of the entire garden, despite Jia Qing's "meanness", is still as high as 50 million taels of clean silver!

Jia Zheng has never been thick-skinned. Although he felt that it would be better for Jia Qing to be responsible in the end, it would not be good to take advantage of the Ningguo Mansion, so he asked Jia Lian to go to the town every day, and if there is anything that needs to be supplemented, he should pay the bill first. Let them do it here...

Although Jia Qing felt that it was a bit superfluous, he was quite satisfied with Jia Zheng's attitude and did not refuse.

Moreover, although Jia Lian is playful and lustful, he is still a normal person. Although he has no great wisdom, it is more appropriate to do small things.

After talking about visiting relatives, Jia Zheng suddenly pondered, thought for a while, took out a letter from his case, and said: "This is sent by Shoushanbo's mansion, you should take a look too."

Seeing it, Jia Qing already had a plan in mind, stepped forward to take it, took out the letterhead and read it.

This is a letter asking for help, asking the Jia family to intercede in front of the emperor...

"Second Uncle can make his own decision on such matters, so why ask me?"

Jia Qing refolded the letter paper and put it in the envelope, and said to Jia Zheng.

Jia Zhengdao: "Shoushan Bo's Mansion and my Jia family have always been friends since they were both founding ministers. Now that his family is in trouble, we should do our best.

It's just that I can't say anything in front of His Majesty, so I may arouse His Majesty's disgust by writing a letter to plead... So I discussed with you gentlemen, Your Majesty has always treated you more generously, if you think about it, you can say it in front of Your Majesty Just a few words, why not..."

"What Shi Weng said is very true. Brother is talented and intelligent, and he is loved by two generations of saints. If he comes forward to make peace, the crisis in Shoushanbo Mansion will be resolved!"

"exactly......"

Jia Qing's heart sank.

Sure enough, Jia Zheng is still Jia Zheng, and he is too careless in his actions!For such an important matter, he didn't shy away from the clean-ups he sat down with!I'm afraid, even the letter itself has been shown to them... How can it be possible to act like this!

It would be fine if these cleanups were real celebrities, but Jia Qing knew what kind of level Jia Zheng's cleanups were... they were just a bunch of pedantic low-ranking scholars who couldn't even play tricks... ....

If someone was really capable, how could he stoop to hang around under Jia Zheng's family?Before Yuanchun became the imperial concubine, Jia Zheng was in the court, which is very appropriate to say that he was unknown.

Without one's own status and prestige, it is almost impossible to get the help of the world's talents, let alone a group of...

It's almost the same with He Shanbao.

Even Jia Qing has not met anyone who can really advise him.

If the secret is not kept secret, it will be harmed!Jia Zheng shouldn't understand such a simple truth, but when he was doing things, he forgot all about it.Fortunately, Jia Zheng is in the Ministry of Industry, fortunately, his position is not high...

"It's inconvenient for us to come forward in this matter. It all depends on whether the Shoushanbo Mansion is really guilty or not, and the dictatorship of the Sacred Heart. No one else can help."

In front of these people, Jia Qing naturally wouldn't leave any tongue-in-cheek.

"Brother Shi's words are wrong. Now that the court is reopening the big case three years ago, and the Shoushanbo Mansion has not yet convicted him. As long as Brother Shi intercedes at this time, His Majesty will naturally not pursue it. As long as His Majesty doesn't pursue it further, Then the Shoushanbo Mansion will be fine..."

Jia Qing didn't recognize the person who spoke, but only knew that he was one of Jia Zheng's many cleansers.

Jia Qing didn't bother to pay attention to such idiotic words.If it's all right, Shoushanbo's mansion will ask for help everywhere?Reading that letter just now really brought tears to my eyes.Moreover, how can a courtier control the emperor's mind, unless he is Cao Sikong!

After the speaker finished speaking, he looked at Jia Qing with high spirits, but Jia Qing didn't seem to have heard him speak, but just looked in Jia Zheng's direction, after a few seconds, his face turned red, and he shut up embarrassingly.

In my heart, it was inevitable that there would be resentment and resentment. Jia Zheng had always treated them with respect and kindness...

Naturally, Jia Zheng saw this scene. On the one hand was his retainer, and on the other was his most important nephew. He couldn't say much, so he had to cover it up with the topic:

"Of course what you said is true, but this is already the third noble family involved since the case was turned over, and I don't know how many more noble families will be involved in the future. The noble families left behind by our founding of the country are now going to one family and one family is missing. I don’t know how many civil servants have been involved, this turmoil is really too big, we can help if we can..."

Jia Zheng's words were like looking after relatives in a commoner's house, without any sense of heaviness, it really didn't sound like the tone of a family headed by a government.

Jia Qingxin said: If it weren't for the fact that Marquis Zhaoxin, who was folded in front, was also a founding nobleman, I am afraid that Yuanchun might not be able to become a noble concubine so easily...

This time, the emperor was determined not to give up until he reached his goal. At this time, it was too late for him to avoid right and wrong, how could he add trouble to the emperor!Do you really think how kind the emperor can treat him?I only like you when it's useful, but if you don't like it, you can go home and play as an asshole, Da Chu has a lot of talents......

"It's rude to be late, gentlemen, please stay away for now."

Jia Qing stood up and bowed to all the Qing guests sitting on the other side.

He felt that if Jia Zheng was not reminded of some words, he would inevitably be in trouble in the future.It is better to plan for a rainy day than to fix it.

Although Jia Qing's words were polite, they still made people feel uncomfortable.This obviously does not trust them!

My mind turned quickly, and I got up with a smile.Thoughts were gloomy, his complexion changed, but he still had to get up...

"Second Brother Lian, when I came here just now, I heard that my niece and daughter were making a lot of noise and made my second sister-in-law miserable. Why don't you go back and have a look?" Jia Qing said to Jia Lian after Jia Zheng's cleaners left.

Jia Lian was speechless.Let him avoid it, just avoid it, and give such a lame reason!I'm about to give birth, can I not toss about it?Moreover, as for Jia Qing's determination that Wang Xifeng's birth must be a daughter, he has never been able to figure out why...

"Then I'll go back first..."

......

"Just say what you want."
