There is a small lake in Chengwangfu, an atmospheric and simple pavilion in the middle of the lake, where you can cook wine and enjoy the snow in winter, and it is very meaningful. It is now early summer, the bright sun shines on the world and the earth is extraordinarily bright, the sky is like a wash, the breeze is gentle, and a cup of fragrant tea in the hand is particularly pleasant.

The solemn look on the faces of the two people in the pavilion seemed to be soothed a lot.

Without waiting for King Cheng to take the lead in asking, Jia Hu said, "Your Highness, do you remember how the master fooled my father?" ”

King Cheng's heart sank, "Could it be that Tongling Jade, what is really strange?" ”

Jia Hu shook his head, "I'm afraid only my father knows." ”

King Cheng thought about it and smiled, "Rong Guogong doesn't take that jade in his eyes, and it's not of much use if he thinks about it." "What's the use, it's clear that it's only harmful.

It would be better for King Cheng to draw conclusions by himself, Jia Hu did not refute it, in another ten years, everyone knew that Baoyu was the most 'pitying and cherishing jade' character, and the royal family could also put their minds at ease.

"But why did you have to admit it?" The words of the two were inconsistent, and King Cheng was seen by his father's smiling little eyes before leaving.

Jia Hu hurriedly apologized, "I don't know that His Highness has defended Hu, and I ask His Highness to forgive him." King Cheng nodded casually, which can be regarded as unveiling this section. Jia Hucai said: "I guess the emperor already knows the truth. After King Cheng nodded again, Jia Hu continued: "The crime of unfilial piety can be big or small, and the emperor may not be tired of me because of this matter." But the obvious crime of bullying the king, the emperor must not be happy in his heart. ”

"You have a point." King Cheng spoke. If it were a normal day, King Cheng would also make such a decision. I'm still too anxious to come in. King Cheng took a sip of tea and said, "The battle between King Wu and King Li in the court is getting stronger and stronger. ”

Jia Hu shook his head slightly, "It's not time for you to come out yet." ”

King Cheng sighed slightly, and said self-deprecatingly: "I'm a joke in the eyes of those two now, what are you fighting for?" ”

Feeling very guilty, Jia Hu whispered, "But my business has affected you?" ”

King Cheng waved his hand, "Don't do your business." After pondering for a moment, he said, "If you hadn't reminded me of the Seventh Brother earlier, I really wouldn't have known that he also had hidden ambitions." "I told you about the Seventh Prince's quest to the Ministry of Works today.

"How can there be a prince who doesn't want to sit in that seat." Jia Hu was unexpectedly calm, "The emperor is in his prime, and the remaining little princes may not be impossible." ”

King Cheng nodded in agreement, and said with a slight sarcasm on the corner of his mouth: "He is hiding so deeply, if it weren't for the ninth brother suing me, I really didn't know that the eighth brother was also enveloped by him." "The Eighth Prince is from Wei Concubine, and his biological mother's identity is much higher than that of the Seventh Prince, a palace maid, and I don't know why the Eighth Prince is willing to follow the Seventh Prince's buttocks.

"Maybe it's because the Seventh Prince has a charismatic personality?" Jia Hu guessed.

These words made King Cheng couldn't help laughing. He laughed for a while, and then said: "By the way, your shops in various places have been sold cleanly, only the champion building in Beijing and the jade building in Yangzhou are left, and now the silver money can be used?" As the price of King Cheng's move, Jia Hu paid five million silver, and both of them were very satisfied with the business.

The cash in Jia Hu's hand shrank by half, but he didn't care. The amount of money has reached a level, it is just a number, and he doesn't want to support many people like a king, and the remaining money is enough for him and Rongguofu to spend a lifetime. "Hu, I would like to thank Your Highness for setting up those stewards for me."

Those stewards had nowhere to go, and they were all collected by King Cheng under the tent. In this regard, King Cheng was slightly surprised, after all, robbing the steward that Jia Hu had taught was not very authentic.

Jia Hu didn't care, digging the foot of the wall is a common thing, and he can only blame himself for not being able to keep talents, not to mention that he has stopped it, and he can't waste these talents.

"It is also their honor to be able to do things for His Highness."

He added: "Although jadeite is quite popular in the circle of noble ladies, the audience is still too small. ”

Cheng Wang didn't understand the word audience, so Jia Hu explained it to him, and Cheng Wang asked with interest, "Then you want to open new sales channels?" "I used a newly learned term, and I learned it now.

These princes, all of them are the elite of the elite, they are more clever than the stewards I can use, and they can understand everything. Jia Hu thought so, but he didn't delay him while replying: "Yes." Your Highness wants to participate in a share? ”

King Cheng raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Aren't you cooperating with the Internal Affairs Office?" ”

Jia Hu smiled slightly, "I'm afraid of discrediting the emperor's image." ”

Could it be some illegal business? "Smuggling? No, isn't it jade? ”

"Gambling stones." Jia Hu spat out these two words.

Since recruiting Jia Hu, King Cheng has also heard of the jade industry in Dali and Tengchong, "This is gambling!" The law commands forbid! ”

Jia Hu said: "It's still okay to play a side game." Jia Hu said suggestively, "There are so many rich businessmen in Jiangnan, instead of letting them spend their money on fighting for wealth, it is better to dedicate to our great cause." ”

King Cheng was tempted. Money, he really doesn't have too much!

He asked hesitantly: "Are you sure that your father will not pursue it?" ”

When Jia Hu returned from King Cheng's Mansion, Jia Yu and the Liu family had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Jia Hu coming, Jia Yu blew his beard and glared and said, "Didn't I tell you to stay away from those princes!" Why did you go to King Cheng's Mansion again? Don't take my words seriously, do you? ”

Liu Shi hurriedly picked up a cup of tea and persuaded him to dissipate his anger, "If you have anything to say, the child has his own ideas, you should share the benefits and disadvantages with him." ”

Jia Yu was deeply afraid that Jia Hu would learn from him to fight the dragon's skills, but hated him for telling Jia Hu about being childless, which made him lawless.

Jia Hu said helplessly: "His Royal Highness King Cheng invites me, I can't refuse, right?" ”

Liu Shi pulled Jia Yu and said, "This matter is not urgent. Hu'er, why did the emperor summon you? Your father and I are worried about you! Jia Yu snorted when he heard this, but did not refute Liu's words.

Feeling the care of his family, Jia Hu's heart seemed to be soaked in warm water, and there were bursts of heat in his chest. He smiled slightly, the curvature of the corners of his mouth became more and more obvious, and he seemed to be in a very good mood.

The more Jia Yu listened, the more angry he became, and he had a gloomy face throughout the whole process, especially when he heard the emperor ask about Tongling Baoyu. hated himself for having nothing to do for a while, and his hands were cheap, so he gave Jia Hu a fake psychic jade; hated Jia Zheng's family for a while, so much so that Jia Hu wanted to speak for him; For a while, it was schadenfreude again, Jia Zheng's official hat was taken off, and he was reprimanded by the emperor as 'overwhelmed'. In the end, his face was frozen in gloom.

After Jia Hu finished speaking, Liu patted his chest in fear, frowned and said, "It's strange that someone came from the palace before, and Su Shui actually turned out a piece of psychic jade from your room, which scared me a lot." So, that jade was actually beaten by my brother and sister from the shop outside? ”

"It must be the shopkeeper who used the pattern that my father used to use!" Jia Hu said "indignantly".

Jia Yu coughed, and the eyes of the mother and son brushed over. He was thick-skinned and said unconsciously: "Hu'er, you go back to rest first, and you don't need to come over for dinner." I will send for you in the evening. ”

It's almost time for dinner, so let's drive him away? Jia Hu was a little surprised, and saw that his father kept peeking at his mother, and suddenly realized that he retired with interest.

Seeing that Jia Hu was gone, Liu pushed Jia Yu and said something resentfully, Jia Yu laughed. In the midst of this laughter, Jia Hu walked away.

After dinner, Jia Hu lay lazily on the beauty couch, a pair of dark eyes on weekdays were foggy, half-closed, half-wet hair draped over his shoulders, and a tight middle coat, which made people feel hot when they looked at it in early summer.

Tsuru was playing a fan on the side, and the copper coin was bowed and talking about something. After a moment, the sound of copper coins stopped, and Jia Hu said, "I know." Motioned for the copper coin to withdraw.

"Do you know what you're doing wrong?"

Suddenly hearing the uncle say this, Hegui saw that there was no one else in the house, so he reacted and was talking to him. Hegui almost abandoned the fan in a panic, and only knelt on the ground with the fan in a moment in a proper manner. Tears welled up in his eyes for a moment, and he forcibly endured the heat on the tip of his heart, and Hegui said with some grievances: "I, the slave knows that he is wrong." ”

After all, they grew up together since childhood, and Jia Hu has a lot of affection for him, otherwise he wouldn't be cold to him, and let him serve by his side. Listening to Hegui's nasal reply, Jia Hu's heart softened, and he said lightly: "Since that's the case, Ming'er will come back on an errand." ”

Hegui grinned and kowtowed to the uncle, stood up sluggishly, and fanned diligently. Jia Hu was in the gentle breeze, squinting his eyes and thinking about things.

It was dark outside the window, and Jia Hu waited until the middle of the moon before someone said: "The master is resting today, let the master go down to the master's study tomorrow." "I have to go to Hanlin Courtyard tomorrow, so Jia Hu has no choice but to sleep.

The next day, I went to Jia Yuwai's study.

Jia Yu stared at him for a long time.

Does Hull know his secret? He never revealed it before the person, and he only said it to Tsef after the person. If Hu'er knew, there was no reason to get on the ship that was destined to sink as a king? Or only part of it? Jia Yu didn't dare to underestimate the eldest son, the title of the grandfather of this country was earned by his son!

Thinking of this, Jia Yu said suggestively: "Hu'er, a big event will happen this autumn, and when the time comes, you can avoid it as far as you can." ”

Jia Hu didn't give up, wanted to pry out some news, and glanced at Jia Yu suspiciously, until Jia Yu became angry and ashamed, and then said slowly: "What did my father say?" Why haven't I heard of it in Hallym Temple? ”

was questioned by his son, and Jia Yu almost didn't break the ancient fan in his hand. He subconsciously roared, and he held back. Pardon the old man to teach his son, it's not much better than Jia Zheng, he never cares about it, and if he is disobedient, it's a stick. For example, Jia Lian has never had half a good face from the old man, and once he didn't get the ancient fan in the hands of the stone nerd, he was beaten by Jia Yu.

He hadn't beaten Jia Hu. The eldest son has always been worry-free and promising, but this is not good, it is too much of an idea. Beat him, Jia Yu can't do it, Liu's protection is no worse than Jia's mother protecting Baoyu, and it can't change Jia Hu's decision.

"Like a bull! I don't know whose temperament I followed! ”

Jia Yu said.

"Naturally, I have my own channels of information. Hu'er, our family's title has reached its peak, and it is impossible for Da Zhou to be crowned the king of the opposite sex anymore," Jia Yu saw it clearly, and said bitterly, "Three generations of Rongguo Gong, our Rongguo Mansion is too Xuanhe, like cooking oil on a hot fire, you must know that it is too much!" What's more, the skill from the dragon is not so good. ”

Grandfather handed over all the connections in his hands to Jia Hu, what news channels can Jia Yu have? He rolled his eyes openly.

Jia Yu was so angry with this unfilial son, he pointed at Jia Hu and said sharply, "Lao Tzu doesn't use his words, does he?" ”

Jia Hu reluctantly said, "How can it be? But the son does everything the father commands. ”

"Then you are not allowed to go to King Cheng in the future!"

"You can't wait for His Royal Highness King Cheng to come down to find his son," Jia Hu prevaricated, "Heaven and Earth are the king's teacher, King Cheng is the king, and his son doesn't dare to disobey." ”

Master Pardon was so angry that he almost slurred the Seventh Prince to be the emperor.

"You think I don't know what you're doing?" Jia Yusen said coldly, "You have a chance, don't you take me, an unsuccessful old man, in your eyes?" ”

Jia Hu looked at Jia Yu's condensed eyes fixedly, and suddenly realized that his father was really angry.

couldn't watch his son go to his death, Jia Yu made up his mind and said sharply: "If I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have let you be admitted to the Jinshi so early!" Go to the ancestral hall and kneel, when you think clearly, when you get up. If you haven't figured it out tomorrow, I'll send someone to ask you for leave! ”
