Chapter 9: The Mighty General
"Shixian, you have been wronged."
The splendid Qinzheng Hall was brightly lit, and Zhao Yun personally stepped forward to help Jia Nidao, who bowed and saluted, and held Jia Nidao's arm emotionally.
After all, the Qionglin banquet did not follow the rules for nine tours of wine, and Zhao Yun, who was disturbed, directly ordered the Qionglin banquet to end after applying for a few words from Yu Ci.
This Qionglin banquet in the second year of Jiaxi is also the first Qionglin banquet that has been abandoned halfway since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty.
Zhao Yun didn't really reward Yu Ci.
What is the truth of the whole thing, the civil and military ministers and cadres in the main hall have actually roughly estimated it in their hearts. Zhao Yun naturally knew it.
Jia Rudao did not continue to chase and fight Yu Ci as everyone thought at the critical time, but chose to take a step back and give the Yu father and son a thick carpet for them to make steps, and quietly resolved this major event that might cause the government and the opposition to shake. The depth of the scheming and the ingenuity of the means made everyone begin to face up to this gentleman who was said to rely on Jia Guifei to get the Jinshi for the first time.
Not to mention the various relationships between the Yu family and Emperor Zhao Yun, just Yu Tianxi and Yu Tianren are two brothers, and they are not at will.
Yu Tianxi went through the Ningzong and Lizong dynasties, and was Shi Miyuan's right-hand man. It is impossible for the Shi Dang, led by Shi Songzhi, to watch Yu Tianxi's father and son being pulled off the horse like this, not to mention that Yu Tianxi is still in control of the money bags of the Great Song Dynasty.
And Zheng Qingzhi, the prime minister of the special entry Zuo and Shen Guogong, was also a staff member of Shi Miyuan's mansion back then, and had a close friendship with Yu Tianxi. Similarly, he will not watch Yu Tianxi, who is about to become a minister, lose his reputation at this time.
More importantly, it is impossible for Zhao Yun to really put too heavy a hand on Yu Tianxi's family. After all, he Zhao Yun can become the Ninety-Five Supreme of the Great Song Dynasty from a country boy, and Yu Tianxi's mother and son can be said to have made great contributions.
Zhao Yun is a person who cherishes feathers very much, which everyone knows. In the ten years that Shi Miyuan was not dead, Zhao Yun knew that Shi Miyuan controlled the government and deceived the subordinates, but he still endured Shi Miyuan again and again, which is a clear proof.
If Jia Rudao insisted on making trouble about this matter, the final result might be to knock Yu Ci himself into the dust at most, but he offended everyone including Zhao Yun and Yu Tianxi at the same time.
Zhu just died, and Zhao Yun cut off his career with Zhu's youngest grandson, what will the world think of Zhao Yun?
In this way, it is even more beautiful to Jia Yidao's hand.
He gave enough face and lining to Yu Tianxi's family, and solved the problem that hindered Zhao Yun's reputation. It seems that he has suffered a loss, but in fact, all the benefits have been taken away by him alone.
Just look at Yu Tianxi and Yu Ci's grateful looks.
The way of government is more difficult, and it is actually more difficult to take a step back. Although Jia Rudao is still only a small subordinate of the Sixth Rank Tian Ling, who of the Manchu Dynasty will really treat him as a young man at this moment?
As for the past arrogance, arrogance, and so on, it was shattered in an instant. And the prostitution, gambling and other behaviors that were originally criticized by people are now automatically made up by everyone, that is the romantic and uninhibited behavior that a talented person should have, right?
Of course, this retreat is to advance and finally let go of Yu Ci, in fact, it is just Jia Yidao's choice to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages for his next leisurely life.
He didn't know much about Yu Tianxi, let alone Zhao Yun's past, and he didn't know much about Zhao Yun, Yu Tianxi, and the complicated relationships in the Song Dynasty.
However, he didn't know all this, and Zhao Yun also didn't know why he chose such a solution that was the best solution for everyone at a critical time.
Therefore, as the emperor, Zhao Yun felt very guilty about Jia Yidao. Zhao Yun felt that the reason why Jia Yidao was like this was because he knew that he would be embarrassed, so he chose to back down.
"Wechen doesn't dare, I can share my worries for Your Majesty, Wechen can't be happy, how can he be wronged?" Jia Rudao glanced at Jia Guifei, who was still wiping her eyes on the side, and bowed in response.
Although I don't understand why Zhao Yun would say this, it is obvious that Zhao Yun misunderstood something. But such a beautiful misunderstanding, if you don't catch it, you're really sorry for his businessman's nature, isn't it?
"Your Majesty, it seems that Dao has suffered such a great grievance for His Majesty, and His Majesty has to compensate for it. Otherwise, in the future, those people will think that the two sisters and brothers are alone and easy to bully, woo! ”
The big tears in Jia Guifei's beautiful eyes rolled down. It wasn't pretending, she was really scared tonight. If Jia Rudao is really planted, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for her as a woman.
No one would think that if Yu Tianxi had the upper hand, he would really let go like Jia Yidao.
"Love concubine, don't cry, don't cry. Isn't there still me? Concubine Ai, rest assured, I will never let them be so bullied again. Zhao Yun saw Jia Guifei who was crying pear blossoms and rain, and felt that his whole heart was broken, so he hurriedly let go of Jia Yidao and comforted him in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, speak...... But it's a matter of words. Jia Guifei sobbed and stared at Zhao Yun tightly.
"Forget it, concubine, just look at it." Zhao Yun vigorously played the package ticket.
"The concubine seems to have thanked Your Majesty! His Majesty is so good to his concubines. Jia Guifei finally smiled, and quietly winked mischievously at Jia Yidao.
Looking at Jia Guifei, who was thinking about herself, Jia Rudao's heart couldn't help but feel warm.
He knew that Concubine Jia Guifei was not mixed with anything else about her motherly doting. But for such a family relationship, for such a concubine sister who suddenly appeared in his life, he was really not ready.
Accustomed to seeing too much deceit, calculating and even betrayal, he unconsciously erected a high wall in his heart and imprisoned his heart in it.
The warmth that Jia Guifei brought to Jia Yidao made his heart, which had been cold for many years, feel the warmth that he had not felt for a long time. But it was precisely because this warmth came so suddenly that it also brought him confusion, and the complex emotions of wanting but being afraid rarely appeared on him, which caught him off guard.
Maybe you just don't get used to it, take your time.
He could only comfort himself like this.
……
In the small alley, a small sedan chair squeaked and swayed.
"Childe." Jia Quan scratched his ears and cheeks all the way, and finally couldn't help but speak.
"Huh?" From the small sedan chair, Jia Yidao's voice was a little puzzled.
"Childe, there is a sentence that I don't know if I should ask."
"Say."
"Yes, Childe. Your son, that Yu Zisheng humiliated his son so much, why did the son let go of Yu Zisheng? If it is small, it must be removed from the fame of the rest of the son's life under His Majesty, and it will never be recorded again. Look at who will dare to be disrespectful to Childe in the future, just a poem, Childe is not at his fingertips? That Yu Zisheng is really a dog who looks down on people. ”
There was silence in the sedan chair.
"Childe, did the little one say the wrong thing?" After a long time, Jia Quan'er said cautiously.
"Jia Quan'er, what good will it do me to remove that Yu Zisheng's fame from being recorded again?"
"Well, no one is disrespectful to Childe anymore."
“……”
There was silence again.
He pursued realism, and a little vanity really did not interest him at all.
"Jia Quan'er, do you know how the Dao pig died?"
"Huh? Back to Gongzi, the pig was killed by the butcher. ”
“…… Pigs, like you, are stupid. ”
“……”
"Childe?"
"What's wrong again?"
"The little one has brought out the mighty general."
"Mighty General? What is it? ”
"This is the mighty general, Childe." Jia Quan Xianbao seemed to take out a small porcelain jar from his arms and brought it to the car window, and then seemed to remember something and hurriedly explained: "Childe, this is your most precious mighty general." ”
"Toot toot!"
As if in response to Jia Quan's introduction, two muffled and heavy insect chirpings suddenly sounded in the porcelain jar.
Jia Rudao opened the car window, and looked through the dim light outside, but it was a huge cricket with big shoulders and round waist glowing purple red oil.
Is this Xiaoqiang? Crickets?
"You say this Xiaoqiang is my baby?"
"Xiaoqiang?" Jia Quan looked at Jia Yidao, who didn't care, blankly, and repeated.
When did Childe change the name of the mighty general? Could it be that Childe has forgotten even his most precious mighty general?
It's over, it's over!
Madame should have returned home by this time. If the mighty general has not yet been arranged in the mansion, if Mrs. finds out that the mighty general has been destroyed, in the future, the son will remember that his most precious mighty general has been lost in his hands, and then he will have to take off a layer of skin even if he does not die.
"Childe... This little strong ......"
"Wait, could it be that this Xiaoqiang is the one I used to fight crickets?"
Jia Rudao also remembered at this time that his predecessor seemed to love prostitutes in addition to loving prostitutes. Even in order to fight crickets, he wrote a book "Cricket Sutra" to study Xiaoqiang's habits, varieties and so on.
Throughout the ages, I am afraid that only his predecessor has studied the industry of fighting crickets the deepest, which is really difficult for him. But the name is a bit cheesy.
"Yes, yes, yes! Childe, do you remember? Come to think of it? It's the mighty general you named yourself. ”
When Jia Quan heard Jia Rudao's words, he was so happy that he almost fainted.
"Nope!"
Staring at the strong Xiaoqiang who was still spinning in circles in the blue-glazed porcelain jar, Jia seemed to be a faint way.
"Uh......"
"You've always had this little strong with you? Why didn't I see it when I left the house? ”
"Childe, Niangniang has sent someone to take Mrs. back from Xu's Mansion to take care of Childe, and now she should have arrived in the mansion." Jia Quan looked at the left and said to him.
"Oh?"
Jia Rudao glanced at Jia Quan'er and lowered the curtain casually.
It has been half a month since he was injured and bedridden to being able to walk on the ground, and he doesn't even know what his wife looks like except for knowing the name and family background of his wife who has never shown up from Jia Quan's mouth.
Except for the wife who Zhilu Dao did not meet is called Xu Ruoxi, who was matched by her sister Jia Guifei, the granddaughter of the celebrity Xu Bangxian, and now Zhixinzhou (later Shangrao, Jiangxi) is the daughter of Xu Weili, the prefect of Xinzhou, the rest of the knowledge is really limited.
At this time, Jia Rudao already understood what Jia Quan was worried about.
