At the beginning of September, the birthday of Jia Jing, the third generation of the eldest brother of Jia Mansion.

Jia Jing is Jia Zhen's son.

Although Jia Jing has long been a monk and cultivated, he doesn't ask about mundane things. But at this time of year, Jia Zhen still has to hold a vigorous birthday for him in Ningguo Mansion to show filial piety.

On that day, the old and young masters, ladies and ladies of the family were invited to gather in Ningguo Mansion to watch the play and eat wine.

It's not lively.

Because Mother Jia was happy recently, she also took the ladies of the Mansion to Ningguo Mansion to eat and drink.

When Jia Zhen heard that Mother Jia had arrived, she hurriedly left the clan masters in the courtyard, rushed to the front, and welcomed Mother Jia into the mansion with the You family.

Mother Jia smiled: "You are busy all year round, and you are in a hurry to meet me at this time, just let your daughter-in-law accompany me, you can also go out to accompany them to eat more wine and watch the two plays."

The second wife told me that since your second uncle also went down to the south to do errands, the affairs in the garden are thanks to your help to take care of them.

Now that the garden is almost done, it's time for you to rest. ”

Jia Zhen was very helpful when she heard this, but she hurriedly said: "They are all members of the family, and they should say anything to help or not."

On behalf of my father, I would like to thank my ancestors for their love. ”

While talking, he greeted Jia Mu and the others and walked to the inner house.

Now that he had arrived in the inner courtyard and invited Jia Mu and the others to sit, Jia Zhen was busy checking the surrounding utensils and materials, and instructed You Shi again, and then he was about to leave.

Jia Mu was about to let him go down, but suddenly remembered something, so she asked:

"Brother Zhen, these days, is there any news from the south?"

Jia Zhen thought about it, Jia Zheng also went to Beijing to do business in previous years, and he didn't see Jia's mother care so much, so she came to ask at her father's birthday banquet.

Then, I can only think of Brother Bao.

"Back to the old lady, there are a few, all of them are good news, I heard that the disaster in Shandong has gone down, and the court has also begun to discuss the reward of meritorious deeds.

Our Jiabao brothers, this time we have made a great contribution. ”

"Really? So, Baoyu is coming back soon? ”

What is the merit or not, Jia Mu doesn't care very much, as long as people come back quickly.

Last time there was an accident in Shandong, although the two mansions had been hiding it, but in the end she knew about it, and almost scared her half to death.

Fortunately, news soon came that the riots had subsided and that it was fine.

Hearing that Jia Baoyu was fine, she was relieved.

As for what I heard about Jia Baoyu later, she didn't care too much about these.

In her eyes, Jia Baoyu, a teenager, can receive a great errand?

No matter how good it is, can he have his grandfather, he is too great?

Peace is her only hope.

Jia Zhen nodded: "It should be, I will drag the people in the court to inquire again, and as soon as I have the exact news, I will immediately report to the old lady." ”

"Okay, okay, you go, remember to send someone to inquire"

"Yes."

Jia Zhen smiled, quietly glanced at the other women in the hall, and turned to go out.

As soon as Jia Zhen left, the people in the hall became much more active.

Wang Xifeng took the lead and smiled: "Congratulations to the ancestor, congratulations to the ancestor, your precious grandson is about to return triumphantly!" ”

"Hehehehe, Brother Bao is finally coming back."

Xichun and other sisters also made a voice.

Jia Mu laughed, glanced at Wang Xifeng, restrained her smile, and pretended to be displeased: "You think I don't know, I should have held you back for most of the past six months, and now Baoyu is coming back, and there is someone who can quarrel with you, the happiest, I think it's you."

I advise you, be less excited, people who have just come out of confinement are the easiest to lose themselves.

Today, I won't let you eat or drink! ”

Wang Xifeng suddenly had a bitter face and looked at the Qin family who was pouring wine for Mrs. Wang on the side.

It's just that how dare the Qin family disobey Jia's mother's will, and after pouring wine for Mrs. Wang, he bypassed her and continued to pour wine for Li Kun and others.

"Mrs~"

Wang Xifeng put the target on Mrs. Wang again.

Mrs. Wang smiled: "Don't yell at me, the old lady won't let you eat and drink, and I don't dare to let you." ”

"Hehehehe, this second sister-in-law is miserable, and she must be in vain today."

The three sisters of Tanchun immediately looked at each other and laughed.

Wang Xifeng took advantage of the situation to explore the spring, stood up, walked to Jia's mother, and began to be coquettish.

"Ancestor, just let me eat a cup, just a cup, good ancestor~!"

Jia Mu was so entangled that she couldn't ask, so she asked everyone: "Look at her so pitiful, why don't I reward her with a cup?" ”

"Old lady, give her a cup of food"

"Okay, then give her a cup."

Jia Mu and the others were laughing, and suddenly the mother-in-law of Rongguo Mansion came to report:

"The master is back."

Everyone was silent, and Jia Mu immediately stood up and said, "Call him over, I have something to ask him." ”

Daming Palace South Study.

Emperor Jingtai recruited cabinet scholars, six books, the imperial history of the left capital of the Imperial Inspectorate, and the general political envoy of the General Administration Department to discuss matters.

The topics are nothing more than the previous two, water control and disaster control.

The only difference is that the question of disaster treatment has come to an end, and now the question of how to reward merit and sin is discussed.

After making a statement on all matters, Shoufu Wang Weiren said:

"The merits and demerits of other personnel have rules to follow, and there is no dispute about whether they are guilty or rewarded. Now, only the second prince and Jia Baoyu, who served as the deputy envoy for grain protection according to the imperial historical position, have inconclusive merits, even in the cabinet, there are also disputes among colleagues.

The second prince is the prince, let's talk about how to evaluate Jia Baoyu's merits. ”

All the people present, except for the cabinet scholars, are the people who rank in the Nine Secretaries.

Each of them is at the helm of the Great Xuan Empire.

Each of them is also a person who can often meet the holy face, and their decisions can affect the emperor's decision-making to the greatest extent.

At the same time, they were also the supreme executors of the emperor's governance of the country.

After a brief silence, Shang Shu Zongzhe, a member of the Cabinet and the Ministry of Punishment, took the lead:

"I don't think there's anything to comment on, right and wrong, it's all on the bright side, except for the reward, there is no need to discuss anything else."

"Jia Baoyu's son, a young talent, was favored by the Emperor Taishang at the birthday banquet last year, and he was specially given the dragon pattern jade pendant and the official title of Zhengliupin Wusan.

Later, with the permission of His Majesty, he entered the study room to accompany His Royal Highness the Second Prince.

All of you here have more or less gone to the study to teach their coursework, and there should be no one who has not seen him.

His son has a rigorous attitude towards learning, respects teachers and teaching, and is also humble and courteous.

In time, it will be my great pillar.

All should see this.

Otherwise, he would not have been personally recommended by the Taishi and accompanied him to Shandong to observe and study.

However, I still didn't expect that in addition to its excellent character, it is also excellent in terms of flexibility and ability!

The second prince was assassinated, and Taean was trapped by a mob.

It was he who made a quick decision and immediately moved reinforcements from Qingzhou, which not only saved the second prince in time, but also relieved the predicament of Tai'an, so that the Tai'an civil uprising would not spread to Shandong.

This should be a big success. ”
