Jia Ke accompanied the Queen Mother to the ancestral house of the Zhou family in the next few days.

This place was originally just a thatched house, and later due to the ancestors of the Zhou family, with the first generation of Rongguo Gongjia Yan conquest, this left Jinling.

Therefore, the thatched hut has long been abandoned, but since this is their land after all, the land is still kept for them.

When Jia Ke made his fortune, these Jia clansmen in the south demolished the original grass house and changed it into a few tiled houses in order to tie up Jia Ke.

Since the people of the Zhou family in Jinling are not wealthy, since this tiled house was built, it was robbed by the Zhou clansmen to live in.

Some time ago, when Zhou Wang, the elder brother of the Empress Dowager Zhou, returned to Jinling, he found that his ancestral house had been occupied by the clansmen, and he was also very angry at that time.

Zhou Wang placed a post at that time, to the Jinling prefect, asking the Jinling prefect to come forward to deal with this matter.

As soon as the prefect of Jinling heard that it was the uncle of the dynasty who gave him the post, where did he dare to have any neglect, he immediately took the official to Zhou Wang's ancestral house.

Those who have already occupied the house are all clansmen, where have they seen such a formation? All of a sudden, he was driven out by these officials, and even his things were thrown away.

When he arrived here, Zhou Wang breathed a sigh of relief, and then ordered someone to build another luxurious mansion around these tiled houses, and surrounded these tiled houses in the middle.

In the end, under the persuasion of his wife, he was relieved, thinking that his clansmen, although they were far away, their lives were not good, and their own house was also considered a pillar.

So Zhou Wang paid for dozens of houses near his ancestral home, took over all his clansmen, and bought them hundreds of acres of land near the village, which can be regarded as clan land for the clansmen to live in.

At this time, the resentment of the Zhou clansmen against Zhou Wang immediately dissipated, and at the same time, they were even more angry at the few clansmen who forcibly occupied Zhou Wang's tiled house, and these people were quickly summoned by the patriarch and expelled from the house in front of all the clansmen.

Naturally, everyone was happy, Zhou Wang gained fame, and the people of the Chong clan are now praising him. And the people of the Zhou clan also have a job, and they don't have to do odd jobs like they used to do, or do small work in front of those old people of the Jia family.

When Jia Ke and the others came, the first thing they saw was this luxurious courtyard, and they didn't come to the ancestral house of the Zhou family until they entered the courtyard for a long time.

Empress Dowager Zhou frowned when she came to these tiled houses, but she had heard her father say that their house was originally just a thatched house.

In the end, the Empress Dowager Zhou sighed, originally thinking of coming back to take a look and see the place where her ancestors lived, but now it seems that she is a little taken for granted.

Jia Ke was supporting the Empress Dowager Zhou on the side, and when he saw his expression, he knew that he was disappointed, and he dared to persuade him beside him: "The queen mother doesn't have to be so sad, although the house is no longer there, it is better for us to go to the ancestral tomb of the Zhou family to worship, and it can be regarded as seeing the ancestors." ”

When the Empress Dowager Zhou heard this, she rested in this ancestral house for a day, and the next day, under the leadership of other clansmen, she went to the ancestral tomb of the Zhou family to pay respects.

In the end, he reluctantly left the small village and returned to Jinling.

After the Empress Dowager Jia Kezhou was sent back to the palace, she then began to drive Luan and patrol around Jiangnan.

This time it's not like when I came, it's a sightseeing tour.

This time, Jia Ke went to the people everywhere he went to check on the people's suffering, and sometimes even recruited the heads of the village together and asked them if there was anything that the court needed to do.

Although Jia Ke is a bit of a show, the effect is still good, because the ancient people are still very simple, and when they saw that the Taoist Emperor actually mingled with them and asked about their suffering, he naturally burst into tears of gratitude.

And Jia Ke's inspection in the past month has also known some civil affairs, over the years, the wind and rain have been smooth, the country and the people are safe, plus Jia Ke has changed taxes, and the people can be regarded as relieved.

Although there are still some cases of wealthy families deceiving people in the people, there is no longer any such thing as selling children and daughters because of the famine.

Seeing the current situation, Jia Ke is satisfied, after all, there is no absolute fairness in which dynasty or generation, as long as it can be roughly passable.

After a month of patrolling, Jia Ke's Luan drove back to Jinling City, and now Jia Ke's mission is complete.

In the next few days, Jia Ke, accompanied by the prefect of Jinling and the wealthy families in Jinling, the Jia clan, visited all the places of interest near Jinling.

And during this time, Jia Ke also had a happy event, it turned out that Concubine Chuncao, who had not been pregnant for many years, was pregnant.

Originally, Chuncao hadn't been pregnant for so many years, he thought that she had broken her body when she was in Xuanfu Town, and it was impossible to have children in this life, but she didn't expect that after so many years of recuperation, coupled with the lingering with Jia Ke along the way, she was pregnant.

Jia Ke was also very happy after getting the news, because among Jia Ke's wives and concubines, Chuncao has been with him since he was a child.

If it is said to be feelings, Qin Keqing may be Jia Ke's lover, and Chuncao is like Jia Ke's relative. Knock knock

And the Empress Dowager Zhou was also very happy about Chuncao's pregnancy, when Chuncao was still a six or seven-year-old child, she came to serve the Empress Dowager Zhou.

At that time, it was said that it was serving, but it was better to throw a burden to the side of the Empress Dowager Zhou, so the Empress Dowager last week raised Chuncao as a daughter.

Jia Ke immediately passed the decree after Chuncao became pregnant, and crowned Chuncao as a concubine.

And Jia Ke's action made Qiao Lian very dissatisfied with herself, she had already given birth to a son to Jia Ke, and she was so old, and she didn't see Jia Ke seal herself, this spring grass was just pregnant, and she was immediately crowned as a concubine, isn't this watching people put down dishes?

So Qiaolian went to the Empress Dowager Zhou several times to ask her for an explanation.

Another is Concubine Lanxiang, although she already has a daughter, but who doesn't want to have a son, now that she sees that Chuncao is pregnant, she also begins to be greedy, so she often meets Jia Ke in the garden during this time.

And Jia Ke also knows a thing or two about the thoughts of these concubines, so he has been wet with rain and dew in the past few days.

As a result, although Lan Xiang had a few things, there was no movement, but Third Sister You was also pregnant after a few things.

To say that this Third Sister You is also beautiful among these women, coupled with her pungent nature, she can also let go when she is with Jia Ke, so she has been favored over the years.

The only thing that makes Third Sister You regret is that for so many years, she has not been pregnant, and this time she finally got what she wanted.

Jia Ke saw that two of his women were pregnant, and he was not in the mood to stay in Jinling anymore, so he set off for Beijing.

Jia Ke boarded the ship from Jinling, went north along the canal, traveled all the way along the route he came, and finally disembarked in Tongzhou.

When I arrived in Tongzhou, it was already a sea of soldiers.

It turned out that Jia Ke was afraid of another accident at this time, and when he was still on the dragon boat, he had already sent someone to send a message to the three major battalions, ordering the 50,000 horses of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion to go south to Tongzhou, where he welcomed him all the way back to the capital.

With so many people and horses to protect him, Jia Ke was naturally fine, and when he returned to the capital, Fan Kang and Jia Yucun, two people at the gate of the capital, took hundreds of civil and military officials, and went out of the capital for ten miles to greet him.

Jia Ke just nodded to the ministers above the imperial chariot, and then went back to the palace.

Jia Ke had just returned to the palace and sent the Queen Mother Zhou back to Cining Palace, and immediately received a message from Emperor Jia Zheng, asking Jia Ke to go to Kangning Palace immediately to discuss something.

Jia Ke understood as soon as he heard it, this was Jia Zheng asking Jia Zhi, the king of Chu, what mistake he had made.

Jia Ke did not delay time, and after coming out of the Empress Dowager Zhou's Cining Palace, Luan Jia immediately turned to the direction of Kangning Palace, and when he came to the gate of Kangning Palace, there were already eunuchs waiting for him there, and then Jia Ke followed the eunuchs all the way to the main hall of Kangning Palace. And here, Jia Zheng was already anxiously waiting in the hall.

As soon as Jia Zheng saw Jia Ke coming in, he immediately stepped forward and asked, "What happened?" Why imprison Jia Zhi? ”

Jia Ke was silent for a long time, and finally said in a low tone: "Father, my son was assassinated twice along the way, one of which was actually poisoned by someone. ”

Jia Zheng was also taken aback when he heard it, he was not a fool, and now he understood the reason why Jia Zhi was imprisoned.

And Jia Zheng also had a new understanding of Jia Zhi's boldness, he originally thought that Jia Zhi had done something to disobey Jia Ke at most, which made Jia Ke angry, but he didn't expect Jia Zhi to commit the crime of killing his father.

Jia Zheng let out a long breath when he thought of this, and then said, "Then what are you going to do in the future?" ”

Jia Ke's face was gloomy, and finally he said slowly: "Although he wants my life, he can be ruthless, but I can't be unrighteous." I thought about imprisoning her in the palace and letting him live like this for the rest of his life. ”

Jia Zheng was satisfied after listening to Jia Ke's promise, what he was most afraid of now was the cannibalism of father and son, since Jia Ke had let Jia Zhi go, then he should be punished, who would let him do this heinous thing.

Only now did Jia Zheng sigh and begin to comfort Jia Ke, "Don't be too sad, have there been fewer such things in the royal family since ancient times?" Let's just say that the emperor of the previous dynasty and the emperor of the previous dynasty, the emperor of the emperor and the first prince, which one was calm again? ”

Jia Ke nodded, the royal family has been killing each other since ancient times, and for the sake of that throne, some people can do anything.

Jia Zheng then said: "Now that Jia Zhi is imprisoned by me, you can take him away in a while." ”

After Jia Ke listened, a fierce light immediately appeared in your eyes, and finally said in a gloomy tone: "I don't want to see this rebel. ”

After Jia Ke said this, he instructed Li Deshan next to him: "Send this rebel to Jiapidao and imprison him, and no one is allowed to visit him without my will." ”

Li Deshan got Jia Ke's words, and immediately bowed down and retreated.
