"Where did you say he went?" Jia Mu didn't seem to hear it, and a pair of old eyes were no longer cloudy as usual, but flashing with Dao essence.

This made Wang Xifeng, who was used to the usual Jia mother, a little uncomfortable.

"Ancestor, the second master told me that he went to Jinxing Hutong, Chen Xiangye's house." Wang Xifeng hurriedly replied.

Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang, who served in court, were both happy. Fortunately, Jia Yu and Mrs. Xing were not at the scene. Otherwise, I don't know what the bastard's eldest son will do.

After all, they are all old people in the family, and Jia Yu angrily threw the child for Mrs. Chen. Later, they didn't recognize this son for more than ten years, but they remember it very clearly.

If it weren't for Jia Yu entering the house room after room and never getting out, I'm afraid Jia Yu would not be willing to take his son back.

And all this is because of the death of Mrs. Chen. After Mrs. Chen died, Chen Xiangye, who was still a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, came to the door, and they still remembered the old things that Jia Yu had avoided.

Now, Jia Lian actually came to the door.

It is different from Mrs. Wang and others. Jia's mother really experienced the heyday of Jiafu as the first wealthy family in the Dazheng military. has been able to get along with the amazing Jia Daishan for decades, and Jia's mother naturally has no shortage of wisdom.

So she saw through what Jia Lian wanted to do at once.

Inside the Rongguo Mansion. Now the situation of Jia Lian and his wife is a little embarrassing.

As the eldest son of the long house, he is not allowed to accept the love of Jia Yu. I don't have a relationship with the big house. used to live with the second room, but there was a fundamental contradiction with the second room. That is, as a future heir, the family business is not in the hands of the big house.

Now that Jia Lian has grown up, he naturally can't tolerate this.

Therefore, Jia Lian and his wife suddenly became grandmother and uncle.

If it weren't for Wang Xifeng's tough enough methods, and Li Kun's temperament, I'm afraid Wang Xifeng would be powerless even if he wanted to take care of the house.

So. Jia Lian is looking for a backer.

Moreover, this eldest grandson may have seen through some of his own arrangements, and this is to get closer to the civil official. Find yourself a way back.

The Jia family didn't mention it. On the Chen family's side, Jia Lian had already had a good conversation with everyone in the Chen family.

"Lian'er, do you really plan to take the path of a civil official?"

After listening to Jia Lian's plan to study with him and prepare for the imperial examination. Chen Menglei was very happy. He had countless disciples in his life, and his three sons were all Jinshi. He also taught two emperors, and now Emperor Longzheng regards Chen Menglei as his teacher.

And what a lot of people don't know is. The most talented of Chen Menglei's disciples and descendants are not the three sons of the Chen family, nor are they the many great Confucians in the Hanlin Academy and the Guozi Prison. It is Chen Menglei's daughter Chen Youyan.

Chen Youyan was a good reader when she was a child, and her favorite thing on weekdays was to answer the questions of the imperial examinations of the past dynasties. When Emperor Shengzu saw the question made by Chen Youyan, who was only twelve years old, he once praised her for being a man and a famous person.

even moved the idea of letting Chen Youyan enter the palace as the crown princess. But in the end, I was discouraged. In addition to learning that the Chen family has made a marriage with the Rong Mansion. There are also reasons why Chen Youyan is worried about becoming a martial artist in the world.

After all, the crown prince at that time, and the current emperor is famous for his poor health.

You must know that the imperial examination of the Great Zheng Dynasty was inherited from the Later Zhou Dynasty. Since Guo Rong, Taizong of the Zhou Dynasty, the imperial examination of the Zhou Dynasty has attached great importance to practice. Jinshike even pays equal attention to current politics and poetry.

In this dynasty, Emperor Taizu attached more importance to practicality. Every year, the examination questions focus on important government affairs that need to be solved urgently.

So Chen Menglei is often a pity. If Jia Lian wasn't the heir of the Rong Mansion, then he would rather not have this old face. I must also get my daughter's bloodline over and teach it well.

After all, although there are wars in Liaodong today, Chen Menglei knows very well that the Holy Ancestor did not have the intention of training the Jurchen when he left the Jurchens.

Now that the four seas are peaceful, except for Liaodong, there is no war in the world.

The Mongolian Plateau, which gave birth to the Xiongnu and Turks, has now become a pasture for cattle and sheep in the Central Plains.

As for the Western Regions, there are not so many countries now, and since the middle of the Tang Dynasty, the Western Regions have been infiltrated by the Arabs, and the persecution of the Han people is very serious. Zhou Taizong Guo Rong had the intention to solve it, but Guo Rong was faced with the great enemy of the Liao people, so he had to solve the problem in front of him first. It took all his life to finally drive the Liao people to the Western Regions. But there is no energy left to pursue again.

Therefore, after Taizong, Guo Rong's son, Xuanzong Guo Zongxun was in power, in order to realize Taizong's last wish. Emperor Xuanzong organized four expeditions to the west, which lasted twenty years, and finally drove the Arabs out of the Western Regions.

The Western Regions also belonged to China from then on.

In this dynasty, in addition to inheriting the rule of the Zhou Dynasty over the grasslands and the Western Regions, Jia Daishan, the Duke of Rongguo, also defeated the snowy plateau.

Therefore, if you want to make a war merit now, you can only go to Liaodong. There are so many noble military attaches in the world, and the wheel will take too long.

Therefore, civil officials are clearly more promising.

Unfortunately. Jia Lian is the inheritor of Wuxun, and he is the inheritor of Jia Daishan, the former first wealthy family in Wuxun, his benefactor and best friend.

Chen Menglei could only hold back. But now. Jia Lian came to the door by himself. Brother Daishan, it's no wonder to me.

But obviously not all of them are Chen Menglei's thoughts. Especially Chen Youen. A man of pure learning. The mind is still simpler. So he asked bluntly:

"You are a Rongguo Chengjue, and Da Zheng inherited the previous Zhou system, and civil and military personnel are not allowed to concurrently serve as civil and military. Do you want to give up the title to the treasure jade in the second room of your family? ”

There are so many wealthy families in Shenjing. Naturally, no one will know about the disorder of the elders and children of the Rong Mansion. On the contrary, this is actually a laughing stock in the circle of wealthy families in Shenjing.

If it weren't for Jia Daishanjiwei's presence, I'm afraid it would have been cleaned up by the Zongren Mansion a long time ago.

Since the Taizu of this dynasty, in order to show the intention of being close to the martial arts, it has been stipulated that all martial lords will inherit the lord and test all things, and return to the Zongren Mansion instead of the Ministry of Rites. Now the great sect of the Zongren Mansion is the sixth brother of Emperor Taishang, the sixth son of Emperor Shengzu. Prince Zhongshun.

Speaking of which, Prince Zhongshun was also a fierce general when he was young, but he was short-tempered and ordinary people did not dare to provoke him.

However, Rong Guogong did not have so many taboos, and severely punished him for violating military law several times. Therefore, he has a grudge against the Jia family.

And in this way, Zhongshun didn't look for trouble, but the Holy Ancestor and the Emperor Taishang both protected the Jia family.

Although the Jia family has nothing to do, it is inevitable that it will become a topic of conversation after tea and dinner. It's just that no one said it in front of the Jia family.

Now Chen Youen took the initiative to announce it. It also shows his frankness and selflessness.

Jia Lian was stunned for a moment, but quickly replied: "Naturally not, I didn't want to be a civil official." But the military attache didn't delay his studies. ”

Jia Lian paused for a moment and continued: "There is poetry and books in the belly, and it never hurts to read more books. ”
