Jia Jing, the eldest lord of Ningguo Mansion, died.

When this matter spread, there will be some waves inside and outside Beijing.

said that he had been sick for a long time, and at night he disregarded the dissuasion, started his own alchemy, and died after taking it.

It is also said that when no one is in the middle of the night, the will of heaven is preached, and the merit of the old man is completely out of the sea of suffering, and the corpse is immediately dismembered.

Jia Jianing's national mansion was busy taking care of the funeral and did not mention it, and the Ministry of Rites and Guanglu Temple also received a funeral report.

This fold was specially unraveled by the great eunuch Dai Quan and handed it all the way to the emperor.

"Who is Jia Jing?"

In the Linjing Palace, Emperor Yonglong heard that Dai Quan suddenly came to report this, and his face was somewhat stunned.

Dai Quan said: "He is a person from Ningrong and Rongfu, that is, the son of Jia Daihua of the Jingying Festival in the past."

Although Emperor Yonglong doesn't know the people below, Dai Quan and Ning Guofu have always had dealings, and only then can they be like a treasure.

Speaking of the name Jia Daihua, Emperor Yonglong remembered it and said with a smile, "Didn't Jia Daihua's son die in the early years?"

Dai Quan hurriedly replied: "This is another, when the Jinshi in the examination accepted the title of Jia Daihua, he didn't dare to accept it, so he only gave the title to his son, and went to the Taoist temple to fight Jiao, and he rarely returned to Beijing in these years. As for Your Majesty, the one you mentioned in the early years has a direct grandson."

The direct grandson in the words is Jia Qiang.

Hearing that Na Jia Jing stayed in the Taoist temple until he died, Emperor Yonglong nodded, and said with a smile because he pointed at Dai Quan and said, "What are you talking about, what are you talking about, what are you doing with Sun Ah's irrelevant people?" Not with any good intentions."

Dai Quan smiled and said, "Your Majesty is aware of everything, if the slave and maid don't say it, others will also come to it, so it's better for the slave and maid to come first."

"It's a pity that a scholar is rare, and he doesn't contribute to the imperial court."

Emperor Yonglong sighed, picked up the funeral fold on the table, and said while flipping it over: "It can be seen that the world is like you, thinking that I am strict, and I will often rise in the shadows in a silent place, so it is common to be afraid of death. But I don't know that I have always been strict with myself and lenient with others."

「…… You go and say it, and then ask the Ministry of Rites to mention this matter, and reward some specifications, which will be regarded as worthy of his ancestors."

Dai Quan should write it down.

Emperor Yonglong saw half of the excerpts, but he smiled, and then said, "What are you writing about? However, after passing away in the Taoist temple, I have to talk about some things about gods and ghosts, and I don't know how many times I have seen these, so it can be seen that even if Zhu Zi is a minister and a nobleman, there are some pedantic people."

Dai Quan had already instructed people to go to the Ministry of Rites, and asked Guanglu Temple to prepare for the ceremony, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but smile and say yes.

It was when the master and servant were talking and laughing about politics that a little eunuch outside the palace came in at this time and spread the word below.

"Your Majesty, Prince Zhongshun, Jia Hua, the right attendant of the military department, and Jia Lian, the envoy of the general government, are asking to see you outside."

Jiahua, that is, the name of Jiayu Village.

The prince of Zhongshun received the post of the right servant of Shangshutai, and was in charge of the military aircraft, and when Emperor Yonglong heard that these people were coming together, he knew that there was a new war in Liaodi.

And he commanded that he should send these men in and speak.

Good news has been reported frequently in the past few months, and this time it is the same, it is a happy event, and it is a great event.

‘…… Shangdu Hu Lu Junyi and Dangkou Zhonglang will Hu Yanzhuo raid the middle camp of the Rakshasa camp, burn the baggage, the remnants of the Rakshasa army retreated 180 miles, and sent the envoy to ask for peace. "

A great victory for the imperial court!

"Good!"

Emperor Yonglong took the case, this war has been fought for almost a year, people eat horses and chew all rely on thousands of miles of grain, and I don't know how much material resources have been wasted in the imperial court, Hebei is almost decadent, but it is a victory after all!

An order was immediately issued to the king of Zhongshun to go back to Shangshutai to draft a decree and send it to the cabinet. Looking at how the imperial court should reward and how to deal with the aftermath, the military department must cooperate.

King Zhongshun is such a good person that he has already drafted a letter in Shangshutai, which will be sent to the cabinet later, and ask the Rakshasa to deal with the matter of peace suing. Now he only went back and asked people to discuss the matter of rewarding Liao Land first, and soon he could properly present it to the emperor.

The princes received their wills,

King Zhongshun and Jia Yucun were the first to withdraw.

Jia Lian was also about to leave, but he was left behind by Emperor Yonglong, so he had to wait for a reply.

The Zhongshun King had already left the palace gate, and Emperor Yonglong looked at Jia Lian, who was standing, and sure enough, he saw a white cloth hanging faintly from his waist.

The table full of folds was already dazzling, coinciding with the news of the great victory of the imperial court, Emperor Yonglong was in a mood at this time, and he didn't bother to turn over anything, so he only went to the side hall to rest for a while.

Several eunuchs were busy coming over to fan and burn incense.

Jia Lian also followed.

Emperor Yonglong sat down and said, "I have heard that something happened in Aiqing's family, I don't know what kind of generation you are with the deceased Jia Jingtong?"

Jia Lian replied, "The family only starts with my uncle. If you want to think carefully, I am afraid that you will have to add three or four 'tang' words in the middle, almost to the outside of the five suits."

The joy in the emperor's heart had not yet subsided, and when he heard this, he nodded and smiled: "In this way, the two mansions of Ning Rong have come to you, and the relationship is far away."

"That being said, the ancients often said that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors."

Jia Lian said: "The two mansions are counted as this, they are all relatives, and they live close to each other, so the old days are different from other families. Your Majesty can rest assured that at present, the imperial court is in the process of employing people, and the ministers will only wait for their daily official duties before going to worship again, and they will never spoil the frontier affairs."

Dai Quan had already come with a whisk in his hand, and when he heard this, he looked at Emperor Yonglong's complexion again, and his heart became measured.

"Worshipping relatives and friends is also a matter of loyalty and filial piety, how can Your Majesty have the intention of disregarding human ethics?"

Dai Quan turned to Jia Lian and shook his head, and said with a smile, "Lord Jia, what you said seems to be counting, and you should be punished for a big crime of disrespect."

Jia Lian heard that this was a joke.

happened to be in the side hall, he has always been bold, even if the emperor is in front of him, where will he not dare to reply, so he just arches his hand and laughs back.

"This blames me for thinking about it for a while, and Dagong Dai will take care of it for me."

Dai Quan was about to speak, but Emperor Yonglong waved his hand and asked Jia Lian to sit down.

"You are also a man in his thirties, and you have been guarding in front of the gate of the palace so far, and you are in charge of national affairs, but you still have a behavior that you can't distinguish between the important and the serious. Thinking about Lu Junyi, Hu Yanzhuo, etc., this time I will not be able to do it for the sake of your meritorious recommendation, but if you are still careless to do things, sooner or later you will get into trouble."

Arrange the emperor, it is indeed a big deal to say it, Jia Lian has already sat down, and when he heard this, he hurriedly got up.

"Wechen remembered."

Emperor Yonglong waved his hand and told Jia Lian to sit down again.

The people of their own palace rushed to serve tea each.

It was also on duty for many months to guard state affairs, and he did not dare to relax his conscientious work, and now that he heard a big victory, Emperor Yonglong asked Jia Lian, who was in a hurry, to gossip together.

Junchen said some measures to deal with the aftermath of Liaodi, all of which were casual, among which Dai Quan was indispensable to check and fill in the gaps a few times, and he should be remembered.

Jia Lian didn't ask for anything, what he said and proposed was not selfish, it was really only for state affairs, and Emperor Yonglong naturally chatted happily.

It's not the first time that a monarch or a minister has chatted like this.

The great eunuch Dai Quan often secretly wondered that there was a reason why Lord Jia ascended to a high position at such an age.

First of all, he was born as a dragon forbidden lieutenant who was on duty in the palace, and he was born to look higher than others, and he was also the heart of a great child, Yunwen Yunwu did great things......

Right now, after two teas during the gossip, Jia Lian thought that someone was estimated to be coming to find him in the Yamen, so he had the intention of going.

Just as he was about to say goodbye, he suddenly heard the emperor's words.

「…… Speaking of which, do you have a descendant in your family who was born of jade?"

Jia Lian had no choice but to reply first: "There is one, and the nickname is 'Baoyu', and it has reached His Majesty's ears without thinking."

Emperor Yonglong looked interested and asked, "Is there really a miracle?"

Jia Lian said: "It's hard to say, others have never seen it, but they are all regarded as auspicious in the house."

Hearing more and more deeply, Dai Quan hurriedly admonished Jia Lian: "This matter depends on how he is doing, how can he be presumptuous and auspicious? For example, Wang Yangming's immortal son, Li Qinglian's Taibai star pendant, Wang Banshan's commonly known badger, and so on, or for the ancient capable ministers, or for the ancient sages, can be regarded as the word 'auspicious'!"

"I'm afraid that Baoyu will be hopeless for the rest of his life—"

Jia Lian was laughing casually, and stopped abruptly halfway through his words.

No matter how you say it, he is also a person who has invaded (silver) officialdom for ten years, and he can't react when he listens to Dai Quan's naked persuasion.

In all dynasties, emperors and lords were quite taboo about the supernatural people under them.

The well-known prophecy of the golden knife is not mentioned, such as the usurper Wang Mang, who once followed the proverb of "Liu Xiufa can't be arrested, and the four Yi gather in the dragon and ......fight the wild", and hunted down the people who called Liu Xiu all over the world.

Now the one above is afraid that the same is true.

The auspicious fortune of Li Taibai that Dai Quan just talked about was a disaster, and the princes and princes who had never been mentioned, such as Liu Bang, Xiang Yu, Yang Jian, Li Shimin, etc., were all born with visions......

It was difficult to argue for a while, and Jia Lian had no choice but to reply: "Baoyu, he is really not a person who can slaughter officials, and he has never finished reading the four books, so what can he talk about Ram Guliang. In the future, I am afraid that it will be difficult to force Li Taibai, and I will waste this auspiciousness."

What he said was sincere, and he really looked at Baoyu like this.

Although Jia Lian has not finished reading the Four Books and Five Classics.

Emperor Yonglong listened to Jia Lian's defense, his face did not change, and he got up and said: "I don't need to ask, there are many auspicious records in the annals, which are not beneficial to the national economy and people's livelihood.

Jia Lian grinned when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is really a saint, and he can say such good things."

Dai Quan instantly followed up and said, "These words are directly compared to the ancient Chinese language, Tang Sect, Song Ren, and others!"

Today's people are not as good as the ancients, and Emperor Yonglong had to turn around and scold Dai Quan a few words.

However, it is also thanks to Dai Quan to welcome him, and the monarch and the minister have regained harmony.

Emperor Yonglong still has an excerpt that has not been approved, and Jia Lian is also busy with the affairs of the political envoys.

In the end, after answering a few words, Jia Lian received the decree and left, and sent a message to the governor of Liaodi on behalf of the royal driver, asking a few people to report the household registration of the various ethnic groups under his rule after checking the rakshasas.

As soon as Jia Lian left, Emperor Yonglong came to the Linjing Palace again to approve the document.

Because he remembered the great victory of the Rakshasa war, which made people happy, Emperor Yonglong smiled at Dai Quan's words while approving it.

"Earlier, Jia Lian said that his family was a jade, but I didn't believe it. It's an official eunuch's family, and most of them are in the delivery room because an ignorant stupid woman replaced what jade, which caused a gust of rumors. Otherwise, if I say auspicious, I should be the greatest auspicious, but the rest of the miraculous things are that I have never seen it, and it can be known that it is not true. If so, let it be something strange and confusing, and come to me to see it."

These words are disrespectful to ghosts and gods, Dai Quan originally wanted to persuade him, but he read that the emperor was really happy today, so he gave up for the time being, and only carefully agreed.

It's night.

Emperor Yonglong entered the harem to rest, because he was very happy, and he felt that the war was won, and the country was really cleared by the Haiyan River, so he had to use more wine to improvise.

At the second watch of the night, I gradually felt tired and uneasy.

Emperor Yonglong immediately got up and planned to win a great victory in the frontier and quit the dynasty for three days to celebrate.

With this will, I had to refill a few glasses, only a glass of wine fell into my stomach, and suddenly I heard the sound of crying outside the palace gate.

There was no one to be found inside and outside the living room for a while, and Emperor Yonglong was immediately frightened, so he had to go out to check by himself.

As soon as he went out, he saw the deceased Emperor Taishang holding a corner of the curtain tent, carefully wrapping it around his hand as a hanging rope, and his eyes looked resentful.

"Rebel—"

"Father!"

Emperor Yonglong immediately woke up, looked up, and saw that he was still in the palace of the Water Queen.

"Someone!"

There was no answer outside the door for a while, and Emperor Yonglong was cold, and the sweat on his forehead overflowed like beans, dripping.

Just as he drew his bedside sword in his hand and stared at the door, a servant entered the door in a panic, bypassed the heavy curtain and came to the ground to please.

"—Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is here!"
