Chapter 407: Reception
King Beijing was a little amazed at Jia Ke's extravagance, these things had never been seen in the palace. Don't think that all the good things in the world are in the palace. In fact, the things that the emperor eats are the most ordinary, like many rare ingredients that are not on the emperor's imperial case. was also afraid that the emperor would know what he was talking about, and the imperial dining room could not be purchased, and he was finally convicted for this.
And the real good things in the world are either in the big families or in the families of the powerful people of the dynasty. Xiang Jia Ke, a figure who can influence the court and more than 10,000 people under one person, naturally has countless people who stutter. Many of these strange ingredients in his house may not even be known to the emperor.
King Beijing was able to recognize this golden tea, also because when the old King Beijing was still alive, someone also sent such tea.
So King Shui Rong of Beijing sat on the guest seat and tasted tea carefully, but he waited for nearly an hour, and Jia Ke did not appear. The tea in the pot has been described several times, and it is already a little untainable.
And at this time, Jia Ke was still leisurely chatting with Qin Keqing, and Qin Keqing was already anxious on the side.
"Uncle, you better hurry up and go to the front, no matter what, that is also the King of Beijing, their family and our Rongguo Mansion are also generations of friends, offending him, it is not easy to explain to the master." Qin Keqing began to persuade Jia Ke not to be rash.
"Don't worry, today is to give them a beating and let him know who he is. Otherwise, when he gets to the army, I won't be able to save him. Jia Ke said leisurely while sipping tea.
"Uncle, it's almost time for you to hang him, hurry up, don't ruin the harmony of the two families because of this."
"Uh-huh, hurt the harmony of the two families? Our Rongguo Mansion and Beijing Wangfu are no longer harmonious, just dry him for an hour or two, what can we do. ”
Qin Keqing looked at Jia Ke a little arrogant, raised his hand and slapped him lightly, and said: "Don't say such things, you are also an old relative for several lifetimes, you don't look at the monk's face, you also have to look at the face of the old King Beijing, so you can see him." ”
Jia Ke saw that Qin Keqing kept persuading, and he himself felt that the time was almost up. So he said, "Okay." Since Keqing persuaded me so, I'll go to the front now. Meet this King of Beijing for a while. ”
After Jia Ke said this, he stood up to identify Qin Keqing, and then walked out of the inner courtyard and came to the second gate. Qian Mao has been waiting here for a long time, and he is in a hurry, his face is covered with sweat, and he is walking back and forth in front of the second gate, but he does not dare to step into the second gate.
Qian Mao looked up and saw Jia Ke coming out of the second gate, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My uncle, you can figure it out." I don't know how anxious the minions are waiting here. ”
"Put your heart in your belly, now he is asking to see us, what do we have to worry about." Jia Ke is still walking forward so slowly.
Qian Mao followed behind, and told Jia Ke what was at the gate of the mansion just now, and then talked about the attitude of King Beijing and the current situation of King Beijing.
Jia Ke listened to his report and walked towards the study.
When they came to the door of the study, Qian Mao hurriedly went over to lift the curtain for Jia Ke, and then invited him in.
At this time, King Beijing walked impatiently around the study, and he was already very irritable. Suddenly, when he saw Qian Mao coming in, he immediately asked angrily, "Steward Qian, when will your Lord Jia come?" Do you have to make me wait here until the evening? ”
Jia Ke heard his voice outside, and smiled heartily, "I am busy with affairs, so I have been waiting for a long time." Here I have made amends to the prince. ”
After Jia Ke said this, he had already walked into the study, and when King Beijing heard Jia Ke's voice, he immediately put away his anger and became a smile on his face.
As soon as Jia Ke entered the study, King Beijing immediately gave up his hand, "Xiao Wang Shui Rong has seen Master Jia." ”
Jia Ke hurriedly took a few steps forward to support King Beijing, "The prince doesn't have to be polite, it's still necessary to give the prince a salute." ”
"What did Lord Jia say, Lord Jia is now the foreman of the Military Aircraft Department, Xiao Wang and I will also listen to it under Lord Jia now, and it is normal to give Lord Jia a salute." King Beijing said with a humble face, and there was even some flattering in his tone.
Jia Ke saw King Beijing's smile, and a playful smile appeared on his face, and then said politely to King Beijing: "Lord Wang, please take a seat." ”
"The host and guest have Xu, where does Xiao Wang dare to sit on the head, or Lord Jia sits on the head Xiao Wang, just accompany each other." Where did King Beijing dare to be the lord, now he has come to beg Jia Ke, and his pride has disappeared now.
Jia Ke saw that King Beijing insisted on refusing to get started, so he had to sit on the hand by himself and invite King Beijing to sit on the guest seat.
After the two of them sat down, the maid below changed into tea. At this time, Jia Ke asked: "The prince has passed the mansion this time, and I don't know what to order." If you can do it, you will do your best. ”
After hearing this, King Beijing couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and the smile on his face stiffened a little, this Jia Ke simply asked knowingly. Just now, I asked myself in what capacity I was visiting, but now I have completely forgotten about it.
But now that he is still asking Jia Ke, he can barely bring a smile on his face, "Lord Jia, there is really one thing that Xiao Wang came here this time, I hope Lord Jia will help." For the sake of our two families who have been friends for many years, the holiday adults will do Xiao Wang a favor. ”
"If the prince has something to say, didn't I say it just now, what can be done must be done for the prince." Jia Ke picked up the tea on the table and took a sip of tea.
"Then I'm here to thank Lord Jia, Xiao Wang was appointed by the imperial court this time to go to the Xiao Cavalry Camp as a supervisor, Lord Jia is the chief officer of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, Xiao Wang came to visit this time, please Lord Jia to say hello to the Xiao Cavalry Camp, so that Xiao Wang can suffer less over there." King Shui Rong of Beijing said these words with a smile.
But King Beijing's heart felt extremely humiliated, you must know that in the past, Rongguo Mansion could no longer enter his eyes, but he didn't expect that now he has to go to Rongguo Mansion to ask Jia Ke in person, so that he can gain a foothold in the Xiao Cavalry Camp.
When Jia Ke did not rise, Rongguo Mansion was only able to gain a foothold in Beijing by clinging to their Beijing Palace, but now it is the opposite, if there is no Jia Ke, he will not even be able to move an inch in the Xiao Cavalry Camp, how can this not make him feel annoyed in his heart.
Jia Ke listened to the words of King Beijing, put the teacup on the table, and shouted, "What should I do?" It turned out to be this little thing. I'll write a note in a while, and the prince will take it back, and I'll go to Xiaoqi tomorrow to report that it's going to be fine. ”
After listening to Jia Ke's words, King Beijing hurriedly said gratefully: "Thank you Lord Jia for taking care of you, Xiao Wang will remember tomorrow's events, and there will definitely be a good reward in the future." ”
A cold light flashed in Jia Ke's eyes, today King Beijing has been insulted like this, how can he be grateful, what kind of reward he says, I am afraid that he kept this matter in his heart and wanted to take revenge in the future.
King Beijing is still a little tender now, and he hasn't done anything yet, so he wants to take revenge in the future.
Jia Ke didn't seem to take King Beijing's words seriously, and came to the desk next to him with a smile. took a piece of nature brush and wrote a few lines of words, "Beijing Wang Shui dissolved into the Xiaocai battalion as a supervising army." "It's Jia Ke.
After Jia Ke finished writing, he put the paper in an envelope and sent it to the King of Beijing.
King Beijing stood up and took it with both hands. After that, he said to Jia Ke: "There are still some things in the Little Wang's Mansion, so I won't bother Lord Jia today." ”
Jia Ke couldn't say this, and if he had anything to say, he walked out of the door by himself.
Jia Ke sat on the main seat, watching that King Beijing got the strip, so he revealed his original form, and decided to give him some color, so that he would know who was in charge in the court, and let him know what kind of character he was now.
"Lord Wang, go slowly, I still have a word to say."
King Beijing had already stepped out of the threshold with one foot, and when he heard his words, he retracted his foot and turned around, staring at Jia Ke's eyes seriously.
"Master Jia has something to teach."
Jia Ke casually picked up the teacup from the table and took a sip, and then said slowly: "The prince is going to the barracks, but be careful." In the barracks, it is no better than your palace, and there are seventeen prohibitions and fifty-four beheadings, and none of them can be violated. After the prince went back, he memorized these well, otherwise no one would be able to save the prince at that time. ”
After listening to Jia Ke's words, King Beijing didn't know that Jia Ke was giving himself a leg up and letting himself know who the boss was.
Shui Rong did not fight Jia Ke, but calmed down his anger, a smile appeared on his face again, and he arched his hand and said to Jia Ke: "Thank you Lord Jia for your teachings, I will definitely be familiar with military discipline this time, and I will never cause trouble to Lord Jia." ”
"It's good that the prince knows, I don't have anything to say, I wish the prince a smooth journey and a safe return."
When Jia Ke said "return safely", he was very heavy.
After hearing Jia Ke's words, King Shui Rong of Beijing couldn't help but shudder in his heart, knowing that Jia Ke was reminding himself not to act recklessly, and not to sit in the wrong place. Otherwise, whether you can return to the capital or not, that's still two words.
But King Beijing has decided to defect to the emperor, and now there is no turning back. He didn't say anything else, just arched his hand to Jia Ke again, and then said with a smile on his face: "Thank you Lord Jia for reminding me, Xiao Wang is still a little self-aware, I think there will be no big problem this time, and he will be able to return safely." ”
After King Beijing finished speaking, he didn't wait for Jia Ke to speak, turned around and left the study and walked outside.
Jia Ke stood at the window and looked at the back of the distant King of Beijing, and said to Qian Mao who was outside the door: "Old Qian, you go and send off King Beijing, don't let people say that we have no courtesy." ”
Qian Mao heard Jia Ke's voice outside the door of the house, and immediately replied, "Don't worry, uncle, I'll go now, I will definitely send the prince out well, let's Wuyang Hou Mansion." ”
After Qian Mao said this, he quickly ran out and followed King Beijing.
Qian Mao said to King Beijing with a smile on his face: "The prince walks slowly, and I will send you out." ”
After asking, he led the way to King Beijing. King Beijing's face was gloomy now, and he followed Qian Mao out of the Wuyang Marquis Mansion.
