After Jia Zheng's father and son sat down, Jia Zhen, the king of Ningjun, who was the patriarch of the Jia clan, took the Jia clan to kneel down again and bowed three times and bowed nine times.

Jia Ke saw that everyone had finished saluting, and then said to Jia Zhen below: "This year's ancestor worship is still presided over by the patriarch. ”

Jia Zhen heard this and hurriedly went out of work to agree.

Then Jia Ke helped Jia Zheng to re-emerge from the Taihe Palace, and when he arrived here, he naturally waited there for a year to wait for the father and son to go up again.

At this time, otherwise a group of people came next to the Taihe Palace, and the leader was the Zhu Lin clan.

At this time, Zhu Lin held Xiao Jia Zhi in his arms, and came to Jia Ke's chariot surrounded by a group of palace maids and eunuchs.

Jia Ke frowned when he saw this situation, what is this for? Jia Ke didn't remember to let two children so young go to Taimiao with them to worship their ancestors.

Zhu Lin first knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Jia Ke, and then said, "Slave Zhu Lin asks for peace to Long Live Lord." ”

Jia Ke said with a displeased face: "What are you doing here with the King of Chu?" ”

Zhu Lin lowered his head and didn't dare to raise it, but said in a firm tone: "Today is a big day to worship the ancestors, although the king of Chu is still young, but he also has a piece of filial piety, so the queen asked the slave maid to take him to pay homage to the ancestors." ”

Jia Ke stared at Zhu Lin with cruel eyes, trying to see through her heart.

Is this time Zhu Lin's meaning, or Qin Keqing's will?

Where is this where the king of Chu has filial piety and wants to participate in the ancestor worship, this is to participate in the worship as the eldest son of Jia Keyan, so Jia Zhi is the natural candidate for the prince.

Jia Ke is not willing to make a prince now, not to mention that Jia Ke is also suspicious of Qin Keqing now, so Jia Ke is silent in the imperial palace.

And at this time, Zhu Lin, who was kneeling on the ground, did not dare to raise her head, she knew that this time it was really dangerous, but once she succeeded, she could let Jia Zhi get close to the water first. So it's worth the risk.

At this time, Jia Zheng in the imperial chariot behind Jia Ke also knew the situation, so he sent the eunuch to pass a message to Jia Ke, and asked Jia Ke to take Jia Zhi to participate in the ancestor worship ceremony.

After Jia Ke listened to Jia Zheng's words, he lowered his head and thought about it, and then summoned Li Deshan.

"You go to Jingren Palace, let Concubine Liang send someone to take King Wu over, since you are going to worship your ancestors, then take them all with you."

Li Deshan got the order, and immediately led people straight to Jingren Palace.

At this time, Zhu Lin's eyes flashed when he was kneeling on the ground, and it seemed that Jia Ke had not yet made up his mind about establishing the crown prince.

It didn't take long to see that Qiao Lian was holding Jia Mao, the king of Wu, and hurriedly ran to this side with the palace maid and the eunuch.

Qiaolian came to Jia Ke's palace, knelt on the ground and said: "Long live the concubine Zhou Qiaolian, long live the concubine." ”

"The concubine is exempt from courtesy."

After listening to Jia Ke's instructions, Qiao Lian stood up.

Jia Ke said with a smile: "Today is the day to worship the ancestors, but the weather is too cold, and I didn't want the two children to participate." However, the queen has already sent someone to bring Jia Zhi, and I thought that since one of them came, the other could not be absent, so I ordered someone to ask you to bring Jia Mao as well. ”

Qiao Lian listened to Jia Ke's words, her face became gloomy for a while, and then she turned her head and glared at Zhu Lin fiercely, as if she was going to eat her.

Qiao Lian was originally a little clever, but now after listening to Jia Ke's words, she immediately understood the cause and effect, this is Qin Keqing in order to compete for the position of the crown prince, and wants Jia Zhi to take the lead and go to pay homage to the ancestors.

Jia Ke saw that Qiaolian understood, and didn't say anything anymore, so he ordered Li Deshan next to him: "Send you two little princes to the Imperial Palace, and our father and son will ride together." ”

Li Deshan hurriedly went up and hugged Jia Zhi and Jia Mao to Jia Ke's royal chariot.

Jia Ke smiled and hugged the two big fat boys in his arms, kissed them left and right, and then said to the people outside, "Let's go." ”

Then the convoy set off again and went straight to the Taimiao.

After Jia Ke and the others left, Qiao Lian stood up and came to Zhu Lin, who was still kneeling there, and then stepped on Zhu Lin's hand on the ground before leaving.

After everyone left, Zhu Lin dared to stand up, she endured the sharp pain on her hands, and wiped the sweat on her forehead with her other hand. Then he went back to Kunning Palace and went back to Qin Keqing.

And Qiaolian was on the way back to Jingren Palace, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, so she ordered the soft sedan chair to go around in a circle and go straight to Cining Palace, where the Empress Dowager Zhou went.

When Qiaolian came to Cining Palace, Cining Palace was decorated with lights at this time, and the Queen Mother Zhou was also preparing to go to Fengxian Hall tonight to worship the costumes of Jia's ancestors.

As soon as the Zhou family saw Qiaolian coming, they immediately smiled, the current Zhou family can be said to be extremely noble in the palace, and Qiaolian is her niece, the two often talk together, she is not lacking in family affection, it can be said that she is satisfied.

"Qiaolian is here?" Empress Dowager Zhou said hello to Qiao Lian, just like Qiao Lian looked behind her, this is looking for Jia Mao, Jia Mao was raised by Empress Dowager Zhou not long after he was born, it can be said that Empress Dowager Zhou's feelings for Jia Mao are not inferior to Jia Ke.

"Auntie, don't look for it, Mao'er is now following his father to worship his ancestors."

After hearing this, Empress Dowager Zhou had no choice but to turn around and continue to look at her clothes from the court.

Qiao Lian went to the side of the Empress Dowager Zhou, drove away the palace maid and eunuch next to her, and then touched the dress while saying to the Empress Dowager Zhou: "Auntie, do you know? Today, the emperor was not going to take the two children there, but the queen suddenly sent someone to send the king of Chu to the emperor's convoy, so that the emperor could not come to the stage. ”

"Oh, and that kind of thing?"

Qiao Lian saw that the success aroused the interest of the Empress Dowager Zhou, and continued to add fuel and vinegar to say: "If the King of Chu is allowed to go to worship the ancestors alone, then what will the Manchu Dynasty civil and military think if they know about it?" ”

After hearing this, Empress Dowager Zhou sat back on the throne and said with a displeased face: "If this is the case, I am afraid that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty will think that the emperor has decided to make the king of Chu the crown prince." ”

Although Jia Zhi and Jia Mao are both grandsons of the Empress Dowager Zhou, the ten fingers are not the same length, and in the heart of the Empress Dowager Zhou, the one who can inherit the world is Jia Mao, the king of Wu who she raised since childhood.

"What happened next?"

Qiao Lian said with a smile on her face: "It's still my cousin who thinks about us, and when he saw this scene, he immediately made an order and asked Li Deshan to take our Mao'er away." ”

After hearing this, Empress Dowager Zhou nodded, with a smile on her face, feeling that this son was really intimate with herself, and it seemed that things were thought of with her.

"You should be careful in the future, I heard the emperor and me talk about it, the nurse next to the queen is not an ordinary person."

Qiao Lian nodded after hearing this, her mind is now all on Jia Mao, the king of Wu, and she regards the Empress Dowager Zhou as her idol, and dreams of being the Empress Dowager in Cining Palace one day.

Besides, after Jia Ke and them were in the Taimiao, after some complicated rituals, they gave incense to their ancestors and kowtowed.

Only then did he return to the Taihe Palace, and then he ordered the eunuchs to send the kings of Wu and Chu to their mothers.

Next, Jia Zheng and Jia Ke took the close relatives of the Jiafu clan to Ningshou Palace to pay homage, and the old lady of Jiafu, Jia Mu.

When they arrived at Ningshou Palace, they saw that Qin Keqing, as the queen, was already waiting here.

Then there was another etiquette, and Qin Keqing followed behind Jia Ke and entered the main hall of Ningshou Palace with everyone.

In the main hall, Jia's mother is in the center as the empress dowager, and the queen mother Wang and Zhou serve on both sides of Jia's mother.

Then everyone kowtowed again, and after the salute, everyone sat down in Ningshou Palace.

Jia Mu sat in the middle and swept through the crowd, and saw Jia Baoyu wearing a royal robe and a crown, standing there respectfully.

So Jia Mu said happily: "Baoyu, come to me." ”

Jia Baoyu glanced up at his father Jia Zheng, and saw that Jia Zheng didn't say anything, so he came to Jia's mother with a smile on his face.

Mother Jia hugged Jia Baoyu in her arms, just rubbing, and Jia Baoyu also let go of the tension just now, and kept coquettish in Mother Jia's arms.

After a while, Jia Mu let go of Jia Baoyu and said to him, "Give your mother a salute." ”

Jia Baoyu stood up and saluted the Queen Mother, then glanced at the Queen Mother Zhou, then turned her eyes aside and returned to Jia's mother's side.

Jia Ke was furious when he saw this situation, this Jia Baoyu is too ignorant of etiquette, do you still think that the Empress Dowager Zhou is the original Aunt Zhou?

Jia Ke was angry now, but he couldn't bear it, so he put the cup on the table directly.

When Jia Mu heard this voice, she looked up at Jia Ke, and saw Jia Ke's face blue and her eyes glaring at Jia Baoyu with red eyes.

As soon as she saw this situation, she knew that Jia Baoyu did not salute the Empress Dowager Zhou just now, and Jia Ke thought that this was Jia Baoyu's rudeness to the Empress Dowager Zhou.

If it was before, Jia Mu's words would have passed like this, but now Jia Ke is the Ninety-Five Supreme, and Jia Baoyu is like this, isn't this an obvious eye medicine for him?

If Jia Ke can't be relieved today, let him keep this matter in his heart, when he and the others are alive, Jia Baoyu may still be safe, but once he and Jia Zheng are gone, Jia Baoyu may not be able to save his life.

So Jia Mu smiled and said to Jia Baoyu: "Baoyu, come here." ”

Jia Baoyu woke up to Jia Mu's side, and was about to be coquettish in front of him, but as soon as Jia Mu raised her hand, a slap hit Jia Baoyu in the face.

This time Jia Baoyu was beaten, and this is the second time Jia Baoyu has been beaten by Jia's mother.

Before Jia Baoyu could react, Jia Mu shouted, "Kneel." ”

Jia Mu shocked everyone in the hall at this time, they never expected Jia Mu to be so strict with Jia Baoyu.

And the Queen Mother hurriedly stood up at this time, came to Jia Mu and said: "Lafayette, what's wrong with Baoyu, I'm here to kowtow to you for him to make amends." ”

After the queen mother finished speaking, she knelt down for Jia's mother.

Jia Mu ignored the Queen Mother and said to Jia Baoyu: "You are not young, and now you are on the throne, don't you know etiquette?" Why didn't you salute Empress Dowager Zhou just now? ”

As soon as everyone in the hall heard Jia Mu's words, they immediately understood what had just happened, so they focused their eyes on Jia Ke at the same time, only to see that Jia Ke was sitting there with a gloomy face at this time without saying a word.
