It was only at this time that Jia Lian figured out that he had just drilled the tip of the horns.

Not to mention that Lin Naichao is transferred away, it is impossible for Chen Youli to return to Shenjing Mansion again, and it is impossible for the Chen family to transfer officials from other provinces to Beijing in order to compete for Shenjing Mansion.

Besides, even Emperor Longzheng could not agree to let outsiders enter Honglu Temple at this time. Although the time is not long, with Jia Lian's continuous tossing, the importance of Honglu Siqing is no worse than that of the other eight Qings.

That's why Lin Ruhai said that the other party was destined to be unsuccessful. It's just that in this way, Jia Lian can only be promoted to Honglu Temple in advance.

As for what the other party did this for, Jia Lian didn't care much. Because, the Yiping party is already destined to be grasshoppers after the autumn and will not grow.

"I'm afraid that the position of Honglu Temple Qing will be honored with your third-class marquis. But it's a pity, I heard that the emperor originally planned to directly promote you to the first class. ”

Jia Lian hurriedly waved his hand: "Forget it, it's good." If it weren't for my sister and the Xue family, I wouldn't even want this third-class marquis. ”

"You, at a young age, are an official fan." Lin Ruhai nodded Jia Lian and said with some amusement.

Obviously, at Jia Lian's age, if the title rises too quickly, he will soon be unable to rise. At that time, Jia Lian could only be idle in Rongfu by himself.

In the original book, King Shui Rong of Beijing is also a masterpiece, but why can't he do anything on the surface. It is because of the high achievements of the king of Beijing in the past dynasties, and the descendants still have the position of king when they reach the water.

is already the king of the county, if you make another contribution, how can the court be rewarded.

What's more, the capital of Beijing is still a special situation, now is not the era of the founding of the country and Jingning, from the late Jingning period to the present, not to mention the princes and dukes, there are very few newly crowned first-class marquis.

Therefore, Jia Lian was not willing to be promoted prematurely, he saw very clearly that if there was no actual power, let alone a first-class marquis, even if he became the Duke of Rongguo, it would not be of much use.

"Uncle, so you say, the reward of the provincial relatives has been decided?" Jia Lian suddenly reacted.

"Yes, you are a third-class marquis, Honglu Siqing. The second brother was promoted to Zhejiang Xuezheng, and the next generation of Ning Guofu was a third-class general. Some other details are expected to be issued at the same time as the edict. ”

Jia Lian was silent for a long time after listening to Lin Ruhai's narration, in the original book, the fall of the Jia family began with Jia Zheng's release.

Although the situation is different now, the big house and the second room of Rongfu have also been separated, even if Jia Zheng goes out again, he will not hurt Rongfu and Jia Lian.

However, Jia Lian still didn't understand what Emperor Longzheng's purpose was in appointing Jia Zheng. Now that it is the year of Dabi, the provinces will soon start the township test. At this time, it is not a joke to send an incompetent person like Jia Zheng, who has never studied politics, to preside over the township examination of a large imperial examination province like Zhejiang.

"By the way, what are you doing today?" Lin Ruhai only now realized that the conversation was deviated by himself, and he still doesn't know what Jia Lian is doing here.

Jia Lian also reacted, and quickly took out two IOUs and put them on the table.

Seeing Jia Yu's IOU, Lin Ruhai frowned, but he didn't care much. It's just five thousand taels of silver, whether it's himself or Jia Lian, it's not a big deal.

However, after reading Jia Jing's IOU, Lin Ruhai's brows also furrowed.

It's not that 200,000 taels is too big a number, even if Jia Lian just built a grand view garden and spent nearly a million taels of silver. It's not a big deal to take out another 200,000 taels, but after all, it is the account of the Ning Mansion, and it also involves the one in the Xuanzhen Temple, Jia Lian is not easy to mix.

"What are you going to do?" Lin Ruhai asked Jia Lian.

"The one in Dongfu, I think it is likely to be related to the Emperor Taishang, and it is even very likely that Jia Jing borrowed more than 200,000 yuan. It's just that the Emperor Taishang erased most of it for him, but don't worry, it's really a critical moment, and I'll pay it back for them.

But I have to wait until I go to Xuanzhen Temple and talk openly and honestly with Uncle Jing before making a decision.

I'm worried about this one. Jia Lian said, taking out Jia Yu's IOU.

This made Lin Ruhai puzzled, Jia Lian, who was not worried about 200,000 taels, had nothing to worry about with only 5,000 taels.

Jia Lian didn't know how to explain to Lin Ruhai. Compared with Jia Jing, who is mysterious but still knows the way, what Jia Yu does makes people more worried.

Because. I didn't know what kind of unobtrusive and bastard thing Jia Yu would do.

Although the Jia family declined in the original book, how could it not even be possible to take out five thousand taels of silver. But Jia Yu sold his daughter without hesitation for this money.

Although Jia Lian crossed not long ago, Jia Yu had an accident. But in the original book and in the memory of Jia Lian's original owner, Jia Yu has done a lot of bastard things.

Jia Lian also thought from this IOU, if the bastard things Jia Yu had done before were poked out at this time, it would be good-looking.

However, he couldn't tell Lin Ruhai about this, Jia Lian could only say: "If I take the initiative to go to the household department to repay this silver, is it appropriate?" ”

Lin Ruhai also reacted to what Jia Lian was worried about. If Emperor Longzheng's own people came to preside over the recovery of the treasury arrears, then Jia Lian should naturally go and repay the money.

But this time it was Yiping's party who came to do this, is there any need for Jia Lian to cheer!

But if you don't go to the show, once Jia Yu's arrears are stabbed out by Sun Cheng, it will be a blow to Rongguofu and Jia Lian's prestige.

Outsiders don't care about Jia Lian's fact that he made a fortune after Jia Yu died. They only felt that Jia Lian had so much money, but his father was forced to go to the treasury to borrow money.

"It's a real nuisance, but it's okay, it's still good to pay it back. Go pay it back. Lin Ruhai quickly analyzed the pros and cons for Jia Lian.

"Good"

Xuanzhenguan, Jia Jing stood at the door of the small courtyard where he lived every day, as if thinking about something.

"What are you thinking?" A Taoist with a slightly lame leg came from behind.

"Senior brother, just now my unsuccessful son came, and he told me that Lian'er from Xifu wanted to see me, and I have agreed.

After all, as you said, we're probably not going to be here for long. Since my Jia family has produced an amazing junior, I should still explain the matter to him clearly before leaving. ”

The lame Taoist's eyes lit up: "So the junior brother has decided?" ”

Jia Jing nodded: "Everyone in the world knows that immortals are good, but only fame can't be forgotten." I received a great favor from the Lord back then, so naturally I want to repay it.

Thanks to the help of my brother, I have finally achieved something in the past ten years. Now that the fate is over, I should naturally leave with you. ”

"Wonderful, wonderful, he saw Rongning Ergong one day, and he finally lived up to his trust."

The lame Taoist stroked his hands and laughed.
