After distributing the New Year's money, Jia Cong looked at the six rough mothers-in-law who had just been divided.

Said: "Since you have been assigned to my courtyard, the benefits and rewards you should have will not be less than you, but there is one thing that I have to make clear to you......

A cold gaze swept over the faces of the six.

Let them all be in their hearts.

Jia Cong continued: "The rules in the courtyard, I think Ruyi Qingwen and they have also said it, the third master, what I hate the most is those who don't follow the rules and violate the yang and yin, I hope you are not!"

In addition, as long as you are a good student, I will not treat anyone badly, but if someone dares to stretch out his hand, then don't blame me for being ruthless......"

Words to the end.

Several rough mothers-in-law turned pale with fright, and immediately assured them again and again.

Jia Cong nodded and told them to go down.

After sending away those rough envoys, Jia Cong looked at Xing'er who was playing silly next to her, and joked: "With only a few gold and silver bills, I will make you happy like this, and your eyelids are a little lighter!" ”

Xing'er smiled and said: "As long as there is a gold bill, the eyelids will be shallow, as you say." ”

Qingwen and the others next to her laughed.

After a while.

Jia Cong said to Ruyi again: "What you asked me to ask some time ago, Zilian's sister-in-law asked someone to come back to me in the morning." ”

Ruyi hurriedly said, "Then the second grandmother of Lian can you allow it?" ”

Hearing this, Qingwen and others on the side also came around, waiting for Jia Cong's next step.

Jia Cong nodded, "It's already agreed, wait for you to go back, and tell your brother and sister-in-law to just go to Sister-in-law Lian, one of them is in the warehouse, and the other is arranged in the kitchen, and they are all light work." ”

"Thank you, Third Master!"

Ruyi was busy kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to Jia Cong.

Jia Cong picked her up and said with a smile: "You have been busy serving me all these years, but it is just a light job for your brother and sister-in-law, it is nothing!" ”

Xing'er Qi said on the side: "The warehouse is full of radishes and pits, can there be a place for Sister Ruyi's eldest brother?" ”

Ruyi listened to Xing'er's words, and hurriedly said: "Third master, there is no need to add a special place in the warehouse, I just said casually, he is nothing in the original place." ”

Jia Cong suddenly laughed.

comforted the two and said, "With my ability, what's so difficult about arranging two people?" Besides, the job vacancies in the warehouse are at the top of Dai Liang's position......"

That's it.

Jia Cong couldn't help laughing, "I will remember the accounts that the guy gave us gray charcoal back then!" At the end of the year before last, I still told Xing'er that I would settle accounts with him when the situation started in the future!

It's a pity that I didn't need to make a move, Dai Liang had already been sent to the toilet shop, but this is also a disguised cash, isn't it? ”

Xing'er suddenly clapped her hands and smiled: "It seems that Dai Liang and other villains should be sent there!" If the third master didn't talk about this, I almost forgot about it. ”

Everyone talked and laughed for a while, and when it was getting late, they dispersed and rested without mentioning it.

Nothing was said all night.

……

The next day was the first day of the first month of the twelfth year of Chengde.

The ugly hour has just passed.

Jia Cong was already dressed in court clothes, and went to the palace with Jia Yu, Jia Zheng, and Jia Zhen.

For the annual New Year's Day pilgrimage gift.

Jia Cong had only heard about it in the past, and naturally had a lot of curiosity and expectation in his heart.

Halfway through.

Many officials riding sedan chairs and horses also poured out from all directions, and everyone went straight to the palace.

By the time of the third hour, all the officials in Beijing above the fifth rank had already come to the outside of the palace one after another.

Everyone had to wait here until dawn.

Time passes slowly.

Everyone stood for more than half an hour, and the eastern sky was covered with a white fish's belly.

Inside the palace, a group of forbidden troops lined up and set up the dragon flag of the honor guard of Emperor Taishang and Emperor Chengde in the place of His Majesty and Danqi outside the Taihe Palace.

First set up a bright fan in the hall, and then the train in the Danqi.

The four whippers all stood facing north.

Subsequently, there were royal musicians from the Department of Teaching and Workshop who quickly entered the venue, which were arranged on the east and west sides of His Majesty, and in the east of His Majesty, there was also a case of sacrificing incense to heaven set up by the Department of Etiquette.

The tall and burly, gold-armored Han generals, each holding an axe and a Fang Tian halberd, and the Praetorian Guards lined up from the Taihe Hall to the outside of the palace gate.

At this time, it was just dawning.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

One heavy drum, one light drum, the drum beat from slow to fast and then from fast to slow, from weak to strong and then from strong to weak, and finally in a melodious bell, the drum stops abruptly.

A moment later.

The drums beat again.

The civil and military officials wearing court uniforms lined up in front of the palace gate, and with the sound of drums sounding again, they entered from the left and right doors of the palace.

It was also at this time that Emperor Taishang Liu Yao and Emperor Chengde Liu Zhang, carrying dragons carried by sixteen people, came to the place of His Majesty in front of the Taihe Palace, ready to accept the congratulations of the ministers.

As the second largest congratulatory gift of the emperor's enthronement ceremony, it has already shown incomparable grandeur and grandeur at the beginning.

It's an eye-opener for Jia Cong!

But.

As time slowly passed, the curiosity and expectation in Jia Cong's heart had already been beaten to death by those two little people called tired and cumbersome.

Only the numb flesh remained, constantly tormented by cumbersome rituals and repeated kowtows.

Jia Cong made a solemn decision in his heart, every year for the Chinese New Year in the future, he would go back to Jinling to worship his ancestors!

That's it.

It wasn't until the third pole of the day that the Zhengdan congratulatory party was nearing the end.

Finally, with Emperor Chengde's "celebration of the end of the performance, and the Qing and others", the congratulatory gift of Zhengdan finally came to an end in the long live of the ministers.

Jia Cong was also relieved.

But that's not all.

Because the next two emperors will also accept the "New Year's greetings" of the civil and military officials.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, those who came to participate in the Zhengdan pilgrimage were not only Beijing officials above the fifth grade!

Today.

Whether it is the civilian officials who are released from the outside, or the generals and general soldiers who are fighting on the border, they also need to come back to see the emperor, and they really can't come back, so they also sent blessings and congratulatory gifts from the border pass.

Even the envoys of the vassal states around Daqian have to pay tribute and congratulate Daqian on this day every year.

……

First Emperor Taishang, then Emperor Chengde.

By the time everyone finished their "New Year's greetings", most of the time had passed.

From going out to now, it has been more than five hours!

Jia Cong pressed his rumbling stomach, and glanced at the civil officials who looked a little sluggish, secretly speechless, but really sympathized with them!

And in the process of New Year's greetings.

Jia Cong also found that in the face of the New Year's greetings of the military attachés and nobles, especially several general soldiers, the smile on the face of the emperor was extremely cordial, and the turn of the civil officials was perfunctory.

Polarization.

Thinking of what Emperor Chengde said some time ago, because the Emperor Taishang's health has improved, the general army of the nine sides has become a little difficult to drive, and Jia Cong has a more intuitive concept of the fact that the Emperor Taishang holds most of the military power of the Great Cadres.

A thousand words in one sentence:

Emperor Chengde is not easy!
