Outside Beijing, Tiejian Temple, four watches.

Jia Jing has stopped his soul so far, and after several rituals have been completed, he will be buried today.

Jia Zhen and Jia Rong, the filial sons and grandsons, helped the coffin and cried again, but others couldn't persuade them, and they couldn't drag them out.

Only You Shi came forward to persuade Jia Zhen and said, "You have been in poor health for several days, and you still have a lot of things to do, how can you make this bad body? There has been a big incident in Beijing, so the eldest man was buried safely, and he came to choose a day to help the coffin and send it back to his hometown in Jinling, so he was most anxious at the moment."

Jia Zhen listened, and then let go.

Leaving everything to You Shi to preside over for the time being, he went to rest.

After breakfast inside and out, in the morning, someone suddenly came outside the Tiejian Temple to report the news.

"Second Master Lian, Prince Beijing, Prince Zhongshun, Zhu Gui, Guanglu Temple...... and others have come to pay their respects."

You Shi, who was presiding over the funeral, was shocked when he heard it.

It is common sense for Jia Lian to come over, and the king of Beijing came because of the world's friends, why did the loyal prince also come? Or did it go straight to the family temple?

You Shi had never seen this kind of battle, and while ordering to bring it in quickly, he was in a hurry to find the principal Jia Zhen.

Jia Zhen is not in the Iron Threshold Temple, and has already returned home.

looked for Jia Rong again, but said that he also went to Beijing to find a place to rest.

You Shi had no choice but to bring Jia Qiang, Jia Yun, Jia Yan, Jia Qin and others to receive him in person.

Jia Jing stopped in the spirit house, King Zhongshun and King Beijing came first, and each put on incense, Jia Yun and Jia Qiang came forward and led the entourage Changshi to the other room to receive him.

You Shi took the opportunity to look for Jia Lian and anxiously showed the situation in the Iron Threshold Temple.

Jia Zhen is not here now, and since she met the distinguished guests, there are really few people outside.

"This pair of pickled father and son are also ridiculous!"

Jia Lian scolded, so he had to read Jia Jing's past dealings, wore filial piety clothes as a relative, and helped to receive King Zhongshun and others.

They originally received the will of the imperial court, and all their official duties were unloaded, and they went out of Beijing to see the imperial tomb as a messenger, and by the way, they urged the counties of Zhili to dredge the roads, and prepared the coffin of the queen mother.

When I came back today, I talked about the side of the Iron Threshold Temple, and only then did some people rush here, bluffing the Iron Threshold Temple.

After the memorial service was completed at this time, the king of Zhongshun was not in a hurry to leave, but only turned back first to instruct Zhu Gui, the Qing of Guanglu Temple.

"Although the saint had a decree earlier, he also worshipped here. But there are a lot of people coming and going today, so that the people behind them don't have to go into the house to bother, and they can just do their best outside."

"What the prince said is very true."

Zhu Gui was about to come forward to pay respects, but when he heard this, he hurriedly withdrew to make arrangements.

King Shui Rong of Beijing had already finished worshipping, and then he came to Jia Lian's side, looking at this situation, and whispered: "It is not a good intention for King Zhongshun to come here to pay respects, if it is spread out, others will think that you are going to lead people over, which is already considered overdue."

The imperial court has issued an order to posthumously award Jia Jing an official position, and the prince has allowed him to hang himself.

Today's event is indeed overdone.

Jia Lian had always known that King Beijing and King Zhongshun were not dealing with each other, so it was not surprising to hear him take the initiative to say this.

Jia Lian said, "I also know that because of my lack of cooperation, King Zhongshun has not liked me in Shangshutai recently. When I meet Your Majesty later, if I have the opportunity, I will carefully summarize this matter, and when it makes sense, Your Majesty will not be surprised."

As for now, since everyone has already come, Master Jing has been trembling for a lifetime, and he has accepted this gift first.

Shui Rong saw that Jia Lian was a little measured, so he didn't say anything for the time being, and only saw that Prince Zhongshun ordered the Qin to send a team over.

Jia Lian immediately led the king of Zhongshun and the king of Beijing to the side room to receive them.

The team of Qincha outside also decided to rest here, and then go to the imperial court to report their lives.

When they entered the room, King Zhongshun and King Beijing sat on the left and right, and Jia Lian sat with him at the bottom left.

The two little novices came over with tea and served them to each other.

King Zhongshun moistened his mouth with tea, and sighed: "It is an eventful autumn, the Queen Mother Bintian, Your Majesty is sick again, and the government affairs of the country seem to be in a mess."

King Shui Rong of Beijing heard it suspiciously, "Your Majesty is actually sick?"

He was away for two days, and he really didn't know the news.

Before receiving the order to leave Beijing, although the emperor looked haggard and his voice lost his temperament, he also met with several foreign ministers in a row, and he did not see fatigue.

Why is this all of a sudden?

Prince Zhongshun said, "I also arrived in the suburbs of Beijing and just received this letter, what kind of filial piety is Your Majesty? In the past few days, because the Queen Mother Bintian has not slept soundly for a day, I think it is because she is worried and sick, so she is sick."

At this time, Zhu Gui, the secretary of Guanglu Temple, bowed in.

The two princes and one uncle are talking inside, and when the idlers dare to disturb, it will be him.

Zhu Gui each saluted, sat down under Jia Lian, and bowed his hands to a few people.

"As a courtier, I can't share my worries, why don't I look for monks and Taoist priests, and choose those who have the ability to enter the palace to send? One is to describe our loyalty, filial piety and diligence, and the other is to pray for Your Majesty's blessings and disasters."

King Shui Rong of Beijing listened proudly, just because it was mentioned by Zhu Gui, and it was inevitable that he would hesitate.

King Zhongshun peeked at the watery face, and said with a smile: "This is a good thing, why don't you ask the prince of Beijing to do it for me?"

Shui Rong immediately replied, "Xiao Wang is young, how dare he take on such a big thing? It's better to be loyal to the prince."

"Then I'll come."

The King of Loyalty stroked his palms and smiled.

Shui Rong listened, and was silent for a while.

When Jia Lian heard Zhu Gui talk about looking for a capable monk, he already remembered the figure of the Qingdao man in his heart.

This time, Jia Jingzhi mourned, as if he had also invited him to come, and he was still watching outside.

I'll be able to mention it later.

Just when King Zhongshun and Zhu Gui were talking happily in the house, Jia Qiang, a small door on the side, opened the curtain in a panic and came in to spread the word.

"Enlighten the princes, the palace has sent someone to look for it!"

Jia Lian, Shui Rong, King Zhongshun, and Zhu Gui were all surprised for a while, and they hurriedly walked out and came to see them in the main hall of Tieji Temple.

It is familiar to the eyes of people.

Jia Lian took a closer look, and it turned out to be Xia Shouzhong, the great eunuch who had not heard from him for a long time, and he didn't know when he would resume his position.

Xia Shouzhong came to pass on the message this time, so that the Qincha team dispersed on the spot, each returned to the government, and was loyal to the king to enter the palace and play the right match.

Everyone panicked and received the order, and the king of Zhongshun immediately left everyone behind and went to the palace with Xia Shouzhong.

Today's oracle was found, and the accompanying cadres knew that the palace was so anxious to see people, so they didn't dare to stay in the Tieji Temple anymore, and they were busy saying goodbye and going back and forth to Beijing.

Jia Lian was behind, and he also put incense on the pillar in front of Jia Jingling, then took off his filial piety clothes and prepared to go back to Beijing.

"Lian Er, let me say a few words before leaving, presumably no matter how busy my official business is, I am not in a hurry for this moment."

As soon as he went out, Jia Lian saw Dongfu Grandma You talking by the door, obviously waiting for a long time.

As he spoke, You Shi burst into tears and wiped it away.

Jia Lian hesitated for a moment, but had to agree, and sent the Taichang Temple Cheng who was waiting next to him to go back to report the news first.

"Sister-in-law, if you have something to say, just say it, what are the shortcomings of respecting the old man's funeral? Or did you send an obituary, who didn't come?"

Such kind words made You Shi a little stunned when he heard it.

Over the years, Jia Lian and Dongfu have had a lot of trouble, but I didn't expect to see him say a good word.

"I'm sorry for bothering my lord...... But the funeral is barely in place."

You Shi's mind was a little eager, suppressed the little surprise, and spoke again.

"It's really Eunuch Xia who came and talked about it. When Jia Menli built the Grand View Garden last year, all parties owed the Ministry of Internal Affairs an amount of no more than one million taels of silver, saying that it would be better to pay it back at a certain time."

The two of them only stood outside the stagnant spirit, each with an entourage talking to him.

You Shi continued: "You also know that the uncle here in Dongfu is not good at doing things, and now that Eunuch Xia suddenly came to ask me, I am really not good at talking. I don't know what the charter is over there in Xifu? Let's talk about it."

Jia Lianru

Today, like the Ministry of Internal Affairs, I often come and go in the palace, according to what You thinks, maybe I can be more accommodating.

"Sister-in-law, don't you know? I haven't bothered with this since I moved out of Xifu, and you can only go to the housekeeper for such things."

Jia Lian turned out to be something, Jia Jing was buried, and the Taoist priests of Xuanzhenguan were also put back, and when they heard that it was just the Jia family that had a deficit, they couldn't help but sneer.

How did You not know about Jia Lian's relocation.

But the eldest lord in Xifu, Jia Yu, is not easy to speak, and the second lord Jia Zheng, who has always been in charge, has been released again, and You really doesn't know who to look for for a while, so he has to persuade Jia Lian.

"Although you are out of the house, you are also a member of the Jia family, and you have to help your family to this day, so you can be so generous. If you stay out of the matter at this time, it will inevitably be chilling."

Jia Lian said: "I don't like to hear this, as the saying goes, how much is a big pot and how many meters are under it, if I come, how can I empty my family and build the Grand View Garden into such a state?" And there were ten stops, but five or six of the silver stopped in the empty places. If my sister-in-law has the heart to find out this silver, no matter how big the hole is, it can be filled."

Jia Lian said this, and went to the door again.

Since this grandmother You didn't let Mrs. Xifu Wang look for it, but only came to find her own bargain first, she was thinking wrongly.

It just so happened that he was still in the Iron Threshold Temple and didn't leave, so it was better to go to the Qingdao chief first to talk about it.

"This!"

When You saw Jia Lian entering the door, he was anxious to shout to stop, but he was afraid of being in front of Jia Jingling, and he was afraid that Jia Lian would be angry, so he couldn't help but press the things in his sleeves, so he could only give up.

But she was really aggrieved when she heard Eunuch Xia ask her before, the deficit of silver in the Internal Affairs Office is clearly a matter of the West Mansion, and the East Mansion has cut off the old earth boundary due to the new Grand View Garden, so why do you have to bear this responsibility?

Although You Shi is the grandmother of Dongfu, because there is nothing to do underneath and it is a continuation of the string, she usually only settles on Jia Zhen, and she really can't make up any ideas.

Now I have to wait back to Ningrong Street and discuss this matter with Jia Zhen and Xifu.

……

Jia Lian entered the room where the spirit was stopped, went to the inner room in the left corner, and opened the reincarnation of the king of Hades with one hand, revealing several Taoist priests sitting and gossiping inside.

"Your Excellency."

Some people who recognize Jia Lian, or those who don't recognize but recognize the official robe, all get up and salute.

Jia Lian nodded, came into the house, and found a Qingdao man in the corner who was meditating with his eyes closed.

At this time, the scavenger also happened to open his eyes and look.

"I know Second Master Lian's intention, but the time has not yet come."

Jia Lian waved his hand and asked the other Taoist priests to go out, and then asked, "When have you not arrived?" Do you still have the powers of an unknown prophet?"

A Qingdao man smiled and said, "No, it's really poor, and I just listened to the conversation of a few people when I rang the bell outside."

Jia Lian couldn't figure out for a moment whether what a Qingdao man said was true, or whether he deliberately deceived himself with words.

A Qingdao man continued: "On this day, His Majesty the Emperor will suffer from this nightmare, if the poor Dao is solved at this time, first, it will be too contrary to the will of heaven, and I am afraid that it will not be safe, and second, it will not be able to show the ability of the poor Dao, so the time has not come."

Jia Lian shook his head when he heard this, and finally threw out the words in the clouds.

The general meaning is heard, this Qingdao chief has to wait until the mountain is exhausted before he is willing to go out of the mountain, and when the time comes, he will seem to be capable, and he can't say that he still wants to change to a canonized real person of one or two grades.

Jia Lian shook his head again and got up.

"Well, I've never seen such a 'WTO' Taoist priest. Since you say that the time has not come, and I will not force it, and you cannot say that Your Majesty's illness will be cured in a few days, then everyone will be happy."

With that, Jia Lian went out.

A Qingdao man originally wanted to say that it was not all good that the emperor had recovered from his illness, but when he saw that Jia Lian was in a hurry, he only sent him out and closed his eyes to meditate.
