Chapter 307: Return to Calm (Subscription Requested)
Jia Zhen's sudden disappearance soon attracted the attention of King Yizhong.
No matter how to say it, Jia Zhen has now become his big benefactor, and the filial piety of millions of taels of silver every year is not a small amount even for the king of Yizhong County.
The strength of the King of Yizhong County is not a joke, he can compete with today, if he doesn't even know how Jia Zhen disappeared, he doesn't need to continue to fight with today, just admit defeat directly.
On this day, as soon as the old man got out of the office, he was invited by the magistrate of the county king's mansion who was blocked at the door to go to the restaurant next to the street to talk.
"Jia Enhou, are you so optimistic about this king?"
The entire restaurant was chartered, the first floor was full of vigorous and powerful guards, and there was only one table on the second floor.
"Didn't the king of the county count in his heart?"
The eldest lord was not polite, sat down and said indifferently: "The longer the time, the smaller the chances of the county king's victory, this is an ironclad fact!" ”
"With the strength in the hands of this king, as well as your Jia Enhou's martial arts, don't you have the strength to fight?"
After drinking the wine in the cup in one gulp, the king of Yizhong County was unwilling to say: "Don't be sloppy with this king, Jia Enhou, you have the courage to be unstoppable!" ”
"So what?"
Adding the delicious food on the wine table, the eldest lord swallowed and poured another sip of wine, and then said with a smile: "I sense that there are at least ten powerful and peerless breaths in the imperial city, and I think that all of them are very powerful, doesn't the county king know anything?" ”
King Yizhong's face was extremely bad, and he slapped the table and scolded angrily: "Damn, just an orthodox name, let the thief have too many hole cards in his hand, this king is unwilling!" ”
"What if you are unwilling?"
The eldest lord sneered: "The longer the time, the slimmer the hope of the county king, and in the end, it will be difficult for the county king to get out!" ”
"You don't have to worry about it!"
King Yizhong said confidently: "If this king wants to get out, even if he fails, it won't be a problem!" ”
The eldest man chuckled and was silent, it was nothing more than a few means, he could think of it, couldn't he think of it today, it was not a good thing to be too confident.
"Say, where did you get Jia Zhen's house?"
King Yizhong said coldly: "Don't think that without Jia Zhen, this king will not be able to pull the Jia clan as a junior brother, and there seem to be many Jia clansmen who are willing to defect to this king!" ”
"The king of the county is free!"
The eldest lord didn't care at all, and sneered: "Can ordinary clansmen mix with the county king, and the patriarch can mix with the county king?" ”
Speaking of this, he smiled and said: "As for Jia Zhen's bastard, I sent someone to be a farmer on an island in the open sea, and I don't want to come back in five, six, seven or eight years!" ”
"Tsk, I didn't expect Jia Enhou, who has always been bold, to leave a way out in the open sea!"
King Yizhong clapped his hands and laughed, as if this was something particularly funny, and after laughing for a long time, he retracted his expression and said in a deep voice: "Could it be that Jia Enhou also has the intention of running away?" ”
"Hehe, I didn't blow it!"
The eldest master picked up the delicate wine glass and lowered his head to play, and said with a leisurely smile: "If I want to leave, even if all the masters in the imperial city make a move, I can't stop it!" ”
Ignoring the suddenly brightened eyes of King Yizhong, he continued to smile: "It's just to leave a way back for the clansmen, anyway, Prince Zhongshun occupies the largest and best island, and the Jia family occupies an inconspicuous island!" ”
"Hmph, you're thoughtful for your people!"
The hungry face of the king of Yizhong County was not good, and he said disdainfully: "Aren't you afraid that the bamboo basket will be empty when the time comes?" ”
"I don't care about that!"
The eldest man dragged it out very much, and said with a smile: "Anyway, I have prepared the road for them, if it really comes to the critical moment, they are unlucky because they are reluctant to those altars and jars, and I can't do anything about it!" ”
The expression on the face of King Yizhong changed, and after staring at the eldest master for a long time, he finally gave up, and said angrily: "Then why are you writing such a letter?" ”
refers to the letter of service that the old lady wrote to the king of Yizhong County in the name of the eldest lord.
This person was also overjoyed, and he believed it without any doubt, thinking that the eldest master had finally chosen himself, and his confidence swelled and his morale increased greatly for a while.
I didn't want to get Jia Zhen away in a blink of an eye, how could his behavior have half of the effect?
That's why I have the current question, and the disgusting of King Yizhong is quite bad.
"Hehe, the dirty thing that came out of the family, don't say it and pollute the ears of the county king!"
The eldest lord waved his hand, and lightly covered up this matter, but it aroused the curiosity and interest of King Yizhong.
Nima, how chaotic is the Rongguo Mansion to allow such a thing to happen?
One is not good, it is a great sin to destroy the nine clans, is it possible that you secretly do not understand the huge risks?
This conversation broke up unhappily, and the king of Yizhong County did not have the intention of resenting the eldest master, but it was inevitable that he would be depressed.
But it has come to this, no matter how unwilling he is, it is useless, he has not given up the last hope, or he wants to toss it and try it.
At this time, the mentality of the king of Yizhong has changed, and without the ruthlessness of breaking the net with today's fish, he will naturally not do too much, otherwise the eldest master is so tricky with him, how easy is it to get out?
There is no desperate madness in his heart, so he is naturally a little less angry, for a strong man like the eldest master, he has the intention of forming a good fate, and no one knows if he will ask for someone else in the future.
After going back, he asked his subordinates to check the situation of the Rongguo Mansion, and the letter of service written in the name of the eldest lord made him feel a strong curiosity in his heart.
He really wanted to know which great god in the Rongguo Mansion was so fierce that he didn't shy away from putting himself in danger at all, and he wanted to pit the eldest lord fiercely?
The result surprised him, and at the same time, he also sighed at the ruthlessness of the Duchess of Rongguo, in order to completely control the entire Rongguo Mansion, he could have such a yin hand, and even the king of Yizhong County felt shudder when he heard it for the first time.
Rongguo Mansion is a big sieve, as long as you are willing to inquire, you can find out what is going on inside. Although Jia Mu's methods are hidden, they can't hide the eyes of real spies.
Although the true reason is known, the king of Yizhong County has not changed his style, and still keeps his subordinates on friendly terms with the eldest lord, and it is very obvious that he is exposed, and he himself invites the eldest lord to participate in the cocktail party held by the palace from time to time.
The purpose is very simple, to make the eldest lord suspicious today, and then to suppress the eldest lord, won't the king of Yizhong have a chance at that time?
At a glance, he saw the sinister intentions of King Yizhong, but the eldest lord did not take the initiative to explain, if he couldn't even tolerate such an idea today, then he didn't want to sit in a secure position.
Obviously, he is not a fool today, and he has not fulfilled the wish of the king of Yizhong.
It's not that his methods can't work, but that Prince Zhongshun has already played such a trick, and as a result, Prince Zhongshun patted his ass and ran away, and all the doubts and dissatisfaction before today have become useless.
Although King Yizhong County showed his intention to win the throne, he is not sure whether this guy will learn from Prince Zhongshun and suddenly disappear one day.
Nowadays, I don't want to spend too much energy and resources, and in the end, all the work is useless.
Not to mention the waste of resources, just the rumors outside are a heavy blow to today's reputation, and he doesn't want the king of Yizhong to come again.
Although he was quite dissatisfied with the King of Yizhong, and even longed for this guy to die, in fact, if the King of Yizhong County did not make a substantial rebellion, it would really be difficult to treat him today.
Otherwise, a hat that kills royal relatives is buttoned down, even if he is not happy today, he also wants fame, but he doesn't want to end up messing up his reputation.
The eldest lord was not affected by the appointment of the king of Yizhong County at all, although he knew that the old lady's affairs could not be hidden, he did not have the heart to take the initiative to hide those bad things for the old lady.
As he took charge of the Ministry of Works for a long time, the new rules were gradually familiar to the officials at all levels of the Ministry of Works, and began to gradually exert their power, which can be seen from a series of subsequent projects.
The work of the Ministry of Industry is on the right track, the big man only needs to do a good job of being in charge and supervision, there is no need to spend too much energy and time to keep staring, anyway, he has determined the responsibility to the person, and he will directly find the responsible official if something happens, there is no need to grasp the big things and small things.
It's majestic to be majestic like that, but at the same time, it's the most tiring, how did Zhuge Liang die, isn't he tired, the eldest lord doesn't have the spirit and perseverance of the prime minister.
With more free time, he naturally focuses on the upbringing of his children and granddaughters.
Yingchun is already over ten years old, while accepting Jia Min's guidance, while practicing the management of other hospitals, the eldest master also gave her a small Zhuangzi outside the city, so that she can apply what she has learned without being polite, it doesn't matter if she really wants to toss that little Zhuangzi away.
Although Mrs. Xing has followed the eldest master all these years to travel south and north, her horizons have indeed broadened and even her temper has changed a lot, but it is a pity that her background limits the height she can reach.
There is no problem with the daily management of the house and the general entertainment, but if you want to participate in the activities of the noble lady in the capital, you are a little weak.
It's not that her identity is not enough, Mrs. Xing at this time is already a second-class order, which is much more majestic than the first-class general's wife who was vain.
It's just that she is very uncomfortable with the style of the noble ladies in the capital, or she has no experience in that area at all, so naturally don't expect her to be able to guide Yingchun here, and it is already very good to be able to take Yingchun out without making trouble.
Jia Min is different, she was the most well-known duke lady in Beijing back then, Rongguo Mansion was in its heyday at that time, she was very familiar with the set in the circle of noble ladies in Beijing, the eldest lord simply sent Yingchun to Lin Mansion to let Jia Min help teach one or two, and Yingchun could not be asked to suffer in these things.
